23. Cross-Modal Plasticity (with Johanna Jaansoo)


Listen Later

This episode we are joined with special guest and young neuroscientist, Johanna Jaansoo, as we discuss plasticity of sensory modalities in response to sensory deprivation. How are sensory modalities (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.) connected to each other? How is the development of the senses connected to the development of cognition and high-order functions? What capacity do sensory modalities have to change after deprivation of sensory inputs (e.g. blindness, deafness). How can knowledge about cross-modal plasticity be used to improve therapeutics for neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders?
