Neurological development/ability

During neonatal development, the brain possesses the striking ability to transfer initially lost functions to new, unaffected cortical areas when irreversible lesions prohibit function of the original representation fields - an ability that is still to a lesser degree present in mature brain. This type of plastic response has been studied in rats with a well defined lesion of the somatosensory cortex that was induced 1 day after birth. Six months later functional MRI (fMRI) was performed with a forepaw stimulation paradigm when the animals showed no neurological... [Pg.65]

A large number of industrial chemicals are hindering children s development, lowering IQ scores, and triggering attention and behavior disorders. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) studies have revealed a large number of chemical substances that cause damage to the human nervous system. The Lancet identified 201 chemicals with the ability to cause neurological effects in humans. Many chemical substances with neurotoxic potential have not been... [Pg.173]
