Introduktion
Neuroplasticity works by the concept” use it or lose” it. When a neuron is stimulated and action potential travels down the axon.
Neural networks are formed when a neuron or a set of neurons are repeatedly fired.
This repeated firing of neurons is referred to as long term potentiation, this results in a gene expression which causes neurons to produce new dendrites, this is referred as dendrite branching and it increases the number of synapses available for the behaviour.
The branching of neurons is known as grey matter. Maguire conducted a study that used an MRI.
