What was of particular interest (in relation to the recovery of John Famechon) was the process of discovering what was ...

Synaptic plasticity is the biological process by which specific patterns of synaptic activity result in changes in synaptic strength and is thought to contribute to learning and memory.

Musical instruments are a famous way for adults to learn something new, with piano an especially popular pick. Many who begin ...

Activity-dependent plasticity of intrinsic electrical properties is not the only form of homeostatic plasticity present in neural circuits. We have shown that excitatory synaptic strengths are ...

increasing the plasticity of the metal and accelerating the zinc creep that ultimately led to collapse. Case closed? Hardly. The electroplasticity mechanism for the Arecibo collapse offered by thi ...

Over half of our genomes consists of thousands of remnants of ancient viral DNA, known as transposable elements, which are widespread across the tree of life. Once dismissed as the 'dark side' of the ...

Three scientists have collectively won The Brain Prize—the largest award for neuroscience—in recognition of their contributions to the science of brain plasticity. Richard Morris, a neuroscientist at ...
