“…39,132 Plasticity also implies changes in activity within the 'non-primary' structures of the sensorimotor network, 133 such as the supplementary motor area and lateral premotor cortex, 134 cingulum, 135 insula, posterior parietal cortex, 136 cerebellum, 137 deep grey nuclei and thalamus. 138 Plasticity equally implies changes in the effective connectivity within the whole functional network 139 -as revealed by measuring the coherence of the activity between the distinct areas involved in sensorimotor function. 140 Concerning language and cognition, the current view is of a spatio-temporal functioning of parallel distributed cortico-cortical and cortico-subcortical networks, [141][142][143] with both simultaneous and successive participation of mosaics of hierarchically organized areas, some of them being essential while others being compensable -with an interindividual variability.…”
