Therefore it is suggested that sleep enhances the cortical representation of motor tasks by brain system expansion, as seen by increased signal activity.

These observations are in line with traditional theories of enrichment proposing that improved performance involves an increase in cortical representation.

Loosely, the deformations are independent of the objects themselves, and we might expect this independence to be reflected in the cortical representations.

However, this recovery only occurred once the open eye was sutured to allow the cortical representation of the deprived eye to recover.

When a stimulus is cognitively associated with reinforcement, its cortical representation is strengthened and enlarged.

This persistent cortical representation of taste familiarity requires slow post-acquisition processing to develop.

Selective cortical representation of attended speaker in multi-talker speech perception.

Her specific interest is in how these processes are organized, what constrains them, and how their functional organization relates to their cortical representation.

Anatomically, the sensory systems with large cortical representations, the auditory and somatosensory systems, are very similar to the visual system.

The smallest and most dense sensory units are located in those areas that have the greatest somatosensory cortical representation.
