Two Paradigms for Brain Learning (VIDEO)
Caption
How does the brain learn? Does it acquire new knowledge by creating new neural pathways, or by strengthening the connections that already exist? A new study from Bar-Ilan University offers evidence in favor of the latter, suggesting that learning is driven primarily by changes in the strength of existing neural connections rather than by expanding the brain's underlying architecture.
