Abstract

The efficiency of interconnections among sensory neurons is reduced in the aged brain as a result of metabolic decline and subregulation of neural communication. Nevertheless, both behavioral and neuroimaging studies show that this cortical plasticity with negative consequences can be reversed through neurobehavioral restorative training. This results in improved normal and deficient visual processing in aging.
