Short exposure to an enriched environment accelerates plasticity in the barrel cortex of adult rats

Cortical sensory neurons adapt their response properties to use and disuse of peripheral receptors in their receptive field. Changes in synaptic strength can be generated in cortex by simply altering the balance of input activity, so that a persistent bias in activity levels modifies cortical recept...
