Immediate neural plasticity shapes motor performance.
The consolidation of motor skills necessitates long-lasting changes in the nervous system. For the most part, plasticity has been documented in motor systems after training and long-term adaptation. However, there has been no demonstration of immediate neural changes associated with the rapid adaptation of motor behavior required to interact with a dynamic environment. To address this issue, we...
متن کاملThe Prodigious Pustule
has illustrated beautifully how far such detailed studies can take you, especially if one considers its recent extension to genome-wide searches using microarrays and bioinformatics methods. I also regret that I did not open my mind earlier to questions of cell biology. I could not imagine how someone wanted to work on mutants like stardust, crumbs, bazooka, klarsicht or nullo. They seemed to m...
متن کاملMusic and Neural Plasticity
This chapter reviews material on the effects of music training on the brain. The review is framed within the broader theoretical context of neuroplasticity and experience, as well as the relationship between behaviour and brain structure and function. It presents a comprehensive account of studies that have investigated differences in the brains and behaviour of musicians compared with non-musi...
متن کاملNeural Plasticity and Consciousness
Neural plasticity has, despite a growing interest in neuroscience over the last decades, received little interest in consciousness research. This might be because neural plasticity has no clear and strict definition; it is used to describe the ability of neuronal tissue to adjust activities and physical characteristics in order to adapt to changes in the environment or changes in their use – in...
متن کاملNeural Plasticity and Consciousness
In fact, these questions indicate that there are three different types of explanatory gap for consciousness. There’s the absolute gap: Why should neural processes be ‘accompanied’ by any conscious experience at all? And there are two comparative gaps. First, there’s the intermodal comparative gap: Why does certain neural activity give rise to visual rather than auditory experience, say? Second,...
