New research by Brian Wiltgen shows that experience changes the way our neurons become plastic
We know instinctively that our experiences shape the way we learn. If we are highly familiar with a particular task, like cooking for example, learning a new recipe is much easier than it was when we were a novice. New research from Dr. Wiltgen's lab shows that experience also changes the way our neurons become plastic and form new memories.
The work is published online in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology.
