The potential plasticity of the nervous system has therapeutic implications that have, in recent years, been marketed to help people "train their brains" to improve cognitive function. This class will discuss the biological mechanisms of neural plasticity, as well as the theory and methodology of intervention- or training-based neuroscience research. Most importantly, we will assess the validity of interventions designed to improve brain functioning by critically evaluating the primary research articles that are the basis of this rapidly growing field.
