Non-invasive brain stimulation methods, such as Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS),
are widely used worldwide to make causality-based inferences about brain-behavior …

Plasticity is an intrinsic property of the human brain and represents evolution's invention to
enable the nervous system to escape the restrictions of its own genome and thus adapt to …

Out of all the human senses, touch is the one that is most often unappreciated, and
undervalued. Yet, the surface of the human body, the skin, is actually one huge sheet of …

There is growing evidence that sensory deprivation is associated with crossmodal
neuroplastic changes in the brain. After visual or auditory deprivation, brain areas that are …

It has become accepted in the neuroscience community that perception and performance
are quintessentially multisensory by nature. Using the full palette of modern brain imaging …

The commentaries have raised important points regarding different aspects of our model.
Some have queried the nature of the proposed dissociations, whereas others have …

Humans are thought to have evolved brain regions in the left frontal and temporal cortex that
are uniquely capable of language processing. However, congenitally blind individuals also …

This review explores cross-modal cortical plasticity as a result of auditory deprivation in
populations with hearing loss across the age spectrum, from development to adulthood …

Cognitive neuroscience seeks to discover how cognitive functions are implemented in
neural circuits. Studies of plasticity in blindness suggest that this mind–brain mapping is …

Human parietal cortex is implicated in a wide variety of sensory and cognitive functions, yet
its precise organization remains unclear. Visual field maps provide a potential structural …
