Brain Malleability: A Dynamic Journey

Synaptic plasticity is a fundamental principle that allows our brains to evolve in response to experiences. It represents the ability of synapses, the connections between neurons, to modify over time. This dynamic concept underlies our capacity to grow, store information, and adjust to unfamiliar environments. Through synaptic plasticity, our ne

Synaptic Plasticity: A Key Mechanism for Memory

Learning and memory is a complex process that depends on the ability of the brain to modify its connections between brain cells. This modification of synaptic connections, known as synaptic plasticity, is believed a fundamental mechanism underlying cognitive function. Synaptic plasticity can take many forms, including long-term potentiation (LTP)
