The Impact of Ecological Niche on Adaptive Flexibility of Sensory Circuitry.

abstract：:After been exposed to the visual input, in the first year of life, the brain experiences subtle but massive changes apparently crucial for communicative/emotional and social human development. Its lack could be the explanation of the very high prevalence of autism in children with total congenital blindness. The prese...
