Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation over bilateral hemispheres enhances motor function and training effect of paretic hand in patients after stroke.

30 Oct 2009 OBJECTIVE: The interhemispheric competition model proposes that the functional recovery of motor deficits in patients after stroke can be achieved by increasing the excitability of the affected hemisphere or decreasing the excitability of the ... Read more...

History matters: illuminating metaplasticity in the developing brain.

27 Oct 2009 Metaplasticity refers to an activity-dependent regulation of the plastic state of neurons. In this issue of Neuron, Dunfield and Haas demonstrate that in intact developing brain circuits, specific patterns of visual stimulation drive functional ... Read more...

Embedding multiple trajectories in simulated recurrent neural networks in a self-organizing manner.

19 Oct 2009 Complex neural dynamics produced by the recurrent architecture of neocortical circuits is critical to the cortex's computational power. However, the synaptic learning rules underlying the creation of stable propagation and reproducible neural ... Read more...
