Description

Thursday, September 9, 2010
Elizabeth Quinlan (University of Maryland, College Park) discusses the relevance of critical periods to plasticity, given current trends in post-critical  period plasticity.  She outlines her ideas about plasticity being latent  and actively constrained by ongoing activity, rather than fundamental  properties of the underlying anatomy.
