Developmental Neuroscience
Definition of Developmental Neuroscience as it relates to Science, Neuroscience, Synaptic Plasticity
Developmental Neuroscience focuses on understanding the neural mechanisms and processes that occur during brain development, from embryonic stages to adulthood. It investigates how genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors influence the formation, maturation, and refinement of synaptic connections, as well as the role of these processes in behavioral and cognitive functions. This field is closely linked to Synaptic Plasticity, as it seeks to understand how experience-dependent changes in neural circuits contribute to developmental processes and shape brain function throughout life. By exploring these mechanisms, Developmental Neuroscience aims to shed light on the origins of neurodevelopmental disorders and provide insights into potential therapeutic strategies.
