Neuroplasticity, also known as brain plasticity, is the brain’s remarkable capacity to reorganize and adapt by forming new neural connections throughout life. Rather than being fixed, the brain is constantly evolving—strengthening pathways that are used and pruning those that are not.
This dynamic process allows us to acquire new skills, store memories, adapt to challenges, and even recover from injury. It underlies our ability to learn languages, improve with practice, and shift cognitive strategies. Neuroplasticity occurs at both microscopic levels (synaptic changes between neurons) and macroscopic levels (changes in cortical maps). While especially pronounced in childhood, it continues into adulthood—offering hope for lifelong learning and cognitive rehabilitation.
