The field of neuroplasticity is increasingly exploring the non-neuronal components that shape synaptic, cellular, and circuit-level adaptation in the brain.

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3 and SDG 4. The interplay between neural plasticity and learning is a vibrant and continually evolving field of study. It provides the ...

An unprecedented increase in the number of older adults and consequent age-related cognitive declines may negatively contribute to an already overwhelmed healthcare system. Many older adults report ...

This bioengineering breakthrough has found a way to make neurons grown in a dish react just like the real thing. "Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in ...

For decades, the scientific theory of depression focused on chemicals — serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine. Nearly every ...

For much of modern history, the brain was seen as largely fixed by the end of childhood. Intelligence, personality, and ability were believed to follow a mostly predetermined biological path.
