Plasticity in primary somatosensory cortex resulting from environmentally enriched stimulation and sensory discrimination training
We studied primary-somatosensory cortical plasticity due to selective stimulation of the sensory periphery by two procedures of active exploration in adult rats. Subjects, left with only three adjacent whiskers, were trained in a roughness discrimination task or maintained in a tactile enriched envi...
