Degeneration vs. degeneracy: a neural systems approach to functional reorganization
2006
Acta Neuropsychiatrica
The term functional reorganization has been used to describe a number of dynamic neural processes related to changes in brain-behaviour connectivity. These include process effi ciency, such that localized metabolic work decreases with expertise; process redundancy, whereby subtly different neural networks are able to resolve a given computational problem; and degeneracy, in which novel brain-behaviour relationships can be expressed in response to lesion or challenge. These processes are argued
