A sensitive period for language in the visual cortex: Distinct patterns of plasticity in congenitally versus late blind adults
Recent evidence suggests that blindness enables visual circuits to contribute to language processing. We examined whether this dramatic functional plasticity has a sensitive period. BOLD fMRI signal was measured in congenitally blind, late blind (blindness onset 9-years-old or later) and sighted par...
