Abstract
Explaining brain plasticity in blindness is challenging because the early visual cortex (EVC) responds to many different tasks, each type supporting a different explanation. Can individual differences help unify the experimental findings into a coherent theory and clarify the nature of brain plasticity?
期刊介绍:
Essential reading for those working directly in the cognitive sciences or in related specialist areas, Trends in Cognitive Sciences provides an instant overview of current thinking for scientists, students and teachers who want to keep up with the latest developments in the cognitive sciences. The journal brings together research in psychology, artificial intelligence, linguistics, philosophy, computer science and neuroscience. Trends in Cognitive Sciences provides a platform for the interaction of these disciplines and the evolution of cognitive science as an independent field of study.
