    Uploaded by

    Plasticity refers to the brain's ability to change and reorganize itself in response to experience or injury. There are four forms of intercellular synaptic changes that underlie plasticity: long-term potentiation, long-term depression, homeostatic plasticity, and spike-timing dependent plasticity. Factors that influence recovery via plasticity include age, extent of injury, enriched environment, and neurorehabilitation/therapy.
