Neural Plasticity
Neural Plasticity: (also known as brain plasticity and neural plasticity) can be defined as the ability of the central nervous system (CNS) to adapt in response to changes in the environment or lesions. The human brain has the astonishing ability to reorganize itself by forming new connections between brain cells (neurons).
