Mechanisms of Experience-dependent Prevention of Plasticity in Visual Circuits
Development of brain function is instructed by both genetically-determined processes (nature) and environmental stimuli (nurture). The relative importance of nature and nurture is a major question in developmental neurobiology. In this dissertation, I investigated the role of visual experience in th...
