How Is Neuroplasticity Assessed in Toxicological Studies?
Assessing neuroplasticity in toxicological studies involves a combination of laboratory techniques and behavioral assessments. Researchers may use imaging techniques like MRI to observe structural changes in the brain, while electrophysiological methods can measure functional plasticity. Behavioral tests, such as learning and memory assessments, provide insight into how toxicants affect cognitive functions linked to neuroplasticity.
