The "neural Darwinism" theory predicts that when one sensory modality is lacking, as in congenital blindness, the target structures are taken over by the afferent inputs from other senses that will promote and control their functional maturation (Edelman, 1993). This view receives support from both cross-modal plasticity experiments in animal models and functional imaging studies in man, which are presented here.
“神经达尔文主义”理论预测，当一种感觉模态缺失时，如先天性失明，目标结构会被来自其他感觉的传入输入所占据，这些传入输入将促进并控制其功能成熟（埃德尔曼，1993年）。这一观点得到了动物模型中的跨模态可塑性实验和人类功能成像研究的支持，本文将对此进行介绍。
