Examples
That’s bad news, given that “sleep is linked to neuroplasticity, memory, and learning,” says Catherine Kier, director of the Pediatric Sleep Disorders Center at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital.
This is known as neuroplasticity, and it’s how our brains develop through childhood and adolescence.
What’s more, EEG studies revealed greater functional connectivity involving the prefrontal cortex, suggesting a boost in neuroplasticity in the region.
These negative changes ultimately come down to a stress-induced decrease in neuroplasticity—a loss of cells and synapses instead of the growth of new ones.
One possible explanation for this phenomenon is a built in system in our brains, called homeostatic neuroplasticity, which makes sure that neural activity remains stable.
Neuroplasticity is a real thing and you can actually increase your overall intelligence.
Yes, the neuroplasticity of our brains does cause it to physically change as a result of its interaction with technology.
