For medical and fundamental reasons, we need to understand adult brain plasticity at
several levels: structural, physiological, and behavioral. Historically, brain plasticity has …

Abstract 22q11. 2 deletion syndrome (22q11. 2DS) is a multisystemic disorder characterized
by a wide range of clinical features, ranging from life-threatening to less severe conditions …

Neurophysiological investigations in patients with schizophrenia consistently show early
sensory processing deficits in the visual system. Importantly, comparable sensory deficits …

We investigated visual processing and adaptation in 22q11. 2 deletion syndrome (22q11.
2DS), a condition characterized by an increased risk for schizophrenia. Visual processing …

Abstract Information processing in the visual system is shaped by recent stimulus history,
such that prolonged viewing of an adapting stimulus can alter the perception of …

The plasticity of the adult brain is one of the most highly evolving areas of recent
neuroscience research. It has been acknowledged that the visual cortex in adulthood can …

Adult primary visual cortex features well demonstrated orientation selectivities. However, the
imposition of a non-preferred stimulus for many minutes (adaptation) or the application of an …

When sensory inputs are presented serially, response amplitudes to stimulus repetitions
generally decrease as a function of presentation rate, diminishing rapidly as inter‐stimulus …

Infantile strabismus impairs the perception of all attributes of the visual scene. High spatial
frequency components are no longer visible, leading to amblyopia. Binocularity is altered …

Background Within sensory systems, neurons are continuously affected by environmental
stimulation. Recently, we showed that, on cell-pair basis, visual adaptation modulates the …
