Our brains adapt whenever we learn a new skill, such as juggling and they also adapt after damage such as stroke.
In this Oxford Biomedical Research Centre public talk, Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience Heidi Johansen-Berg shows how brain imaging allows us to watch the brain remodel, reorganise and rewire.
Prof Johansen-Berg, a Wellcome Trust Senior Research Fellow, discusses the latest research in brain stimulation and outlines the exciting opportunities it is creating for accelerating learning and enhancing stroke recovery.
“Remodelling the Brain” was the last Oxford Biomedical Research Centre public talk of 2012. Thank you to all who attended events during the year.
