Crossmodal plasticity is a textbook example of the ability of the brain to reorganize based on
use. We review evidence from the auditory system showing that such reorganization has …

Congenital sensory deprivation induces significant changes in the structural and functional
organisation of the brain. These are well‐characterised by cross‐modal plasticity, in which …

If the brain is deprived of input from one or more senses during development, functional and
structural reorganization of the deprived regions takes place. However, little is known about …

How do deaf and deafblind individuals process touch? This question offers a unique model
to understand the prospects and constraints of neural plasticity. Our brain constantly …

Sensory experience shapes brain structure and function, and it is likely to influence the
organisation of functional networks of the brain, including those involved in cognitive …

Higher executive control capacity allows people to appropriately evaluate risk and avoid
both excessive risk aversion and excessive risk-taking. The neural mechanisms underlying …

Congenital deafness enhances responses of auditory cortices to non-auditory tasks, yet the
nature of the reorganization is not well understood. Here, naturalistic stimuli are used to …

A cortical plasticity after long-duration single side deafness (SSD) is advocated with
neuroimaging evidence while little is known about the short-duration SSDs. In this case …

It has been proposed that the auditory cortex in the deaf humans might undergo task-specific
reorganization. However, evidence remains scarce as previous experiments used only two …

One of the recent major advances in cognitive psychology research has been the option of
web-based in addition to lab-based experimental research. This option fosters experimental …
