Some evidence for functional reorganization of cortical somatosensory representations in
adult primates is reviewed. These examples include representation remodeling in cortical …

In order to examine the effects of repetitive stimulation on functional cortical organization,
standard intracortical microstimulation (ICMS) techniques were used to generate maps of …

The motor system is capable of adapting to changed conditions such as amputations or
lesions by reorganizing cortical representations of peripheral musculature. To investigate …

A model network of spiking neurons with lateral connections was used to simulate short-term
receptive field (RF) changes by removal of afferent input in the primary visual system …

The concept of neuronal assembly as the basic building block of brain activity dates back to
Sherrington (Creed, 1932) and (1949). Most of our current knowledge about the nervous …

The functional organization of the motor cortex is the result of constitutive competition for
cortical space which occurs in a homeostatic balance of input-output relations. Perturbations …

We examine network models of a sensory and particularly a visual system with three layers
corresponding to receptors, thalamus, and cortex. Spiking elements are used, with lateral …
