  2. Neuroplastic surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroplastic_surgery

    Training in neuroplastic surgery requires completion of a neuroplastic and reconstructive surgery fellowship which lasts 1–2 years. Such fellowships are available to individuals who have completed a residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, ENT Surgery, Neurosurgery or Oral and Maxillofacial surgery.

  3. Activity-dependent plasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activity-dependent_plasticity

    Activity-dependent plasticity is a form of functional and structural neuroplasticity that arises from the use of cognitive functions and personal experience. [1] Hence, it is the biological basis for learning and the formation of new memories.

  4. Neuroplasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroplasticity

    Neuroplasticity, also known as neural plasticity or just plasticity, is the ability of neural networks in the brain to change through growth and reorganization. . Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to reorganize and rewire its neural connections, enabling it to adapt and function in ways that differ from

  5. Neurolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurolysis

    Neurolysis is the application of physical or chemical agents to a nerve in order to cause a temporary degeneration of targeted nerve fibers. When the nerve fibers degenerate, it causes an interruption in the transmission of nerve signals.

  6. Transposase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposase

    The transposition of a transposon often needs only three pieces: the transposon, the transposase enzyme, and the target DNA for the insertion of the transposon. [3] This is the case with Tn5, which uses a cut-and-paste mechanism for moving around transposons. [3]

  7. PiggyBac transposon system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PiggyBac_Transposon_System

    The PiggyBac (PB) transposon system employs a genetically engineered transposase enzyme to insert a gene into a cell's genome. It is built upon the natural PiggyBac (PB) transposable element (transposon), enabling the back and forth movement of genes between chromosomes and genetic vectors such as plasmids through a "cut and paste" mechanism.

  8. Neurosurgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurosurgery

    Neurosurgery or neurological surgery, known in common parlance as brain surgery, is the medical specialty that focuses on the surgical treatment or rehabilitation of disorders which affect any portion of the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nervous system, and cerebrovascular system. [1]

  9. Conservative transposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservative_transposition

    Simple, or conservative transposition, is a non-replicative mode of transposition. [2] That is, in conservative transposition the transposon is completely removed from the genome and reintegrated into a new, non-homologous locus , the same genetic sequence is conserved throughout the entire process.
