A synaptic memory trace for cortical receptive field plasticity
... Neural networks of the cerebral cortex continually change throughout life, allowing us to learn from our sensations of the world. While the developing cortex is readily altered by sensory experience, older brains are less plastic. Adult cortical plasticity seems to require more widespread coordinati ...
