Environmental Enrichment Rescues Precocious Critical Period

Critical periods are developmental time windows when neural circuits in the brain are shaped by experience. Jianhua Cang and colleagues show that a precocious critical period disrupts the matching of binocular information in mouse visual cortex and the deficit can be rescued by environmental enrichment during development, likely through epigenetic mechanisms. For more information, see Wang et al., Neuron 80(1).
