Gene Expression Patterns Underlying the Reinstatement of Plasticity in the Adult Visual System
The nervous system is highly sensitive to experience during early postnatal life, but this phase of heightened plasticity decreases with age. Recent studies have demonstrated that developmental-like plasticity can be reactivated in the visual cortex of adult animals through environmental or pharmaco...
