- Role of hippocampus
- Is it predetermined or experience and learning- correlation
- Contributions…

Q
para 1
A
neuroplasticity
- Brain anatomy and cognitive specialisation
- First paper for GD and E
- Prove brain= morphological and functionally dynamic structure influenced by enviro
- Mechillis 2004- bilingual left inferior parietal cortex
- How it helps with neureorehab + mental disorders

Q
para 2
A
rehabilitation
- Advancements in knowledge
- Everyday activities cause anatomical chances= help for brain injuries and recovery
- Brain function= not localised
- Brain reorganises, repairs and recompensates through new connections w intact neurons
- Maguires paper= better insight into neurogenesis
- Manipulation stimulated by drugs, rehab and electric stimulation
- Carel et al 2000- reactivation of brain structure through passive training within one day
- Frak et all 1999- mental imagery of movement stimulated neural activity in stroke patients
- Debate on timing= further research

Q
para 3
A
schizophrenia
- Neuroanatomy of psych diseases
- Drug or cog therapy interventions trigger plasticity
- Role of hippocampus
- Demonstrates how one area is not responsible for a single cognitive process
- Heckers 2001- through neuroimaging the hippocampal structure has consistent structural abnormalities
- Able to test model of hippocampal dysfunction= drug + cog solutions
