Publisher's Synopsis
When it comes to your brain, you actually can teach an old dog new tricks. Once thought to be hard-wired after early childhood, the brain actually has a remarkable ability to change and heal itself. Known as neuroplasticity, this remodeling due to our environment, behavior, and feelings happen throughout our whole lives.
In this book, you will find much related neuroplasticity study as below:
Part I. The Hippocampus, Amygdala, Memory, Amnesia,
Long Term Synaptic Potentiation, and Neural Networks
- neural networks
- neural circuits & long term potentiation
- synaptic growth and dendritic spine proliferation
- long term potential & memory
- bilateral hippocampal destruction & amnesia
- learning and memory in the absence of the hippocampus
- the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex
- anterograde & post-traumatic/anterograde amnesia
- causes of amnesia
- memory gap
- anesthesia & unconscious learning
- excessive hippocampal arousal & memory loss
- fear, anxiety, startle, & traumatic stress
- memory loss & amygdala dysfunction
- And much more
