Could someone explain the concept of Cortical Reorganization to me? From what I understand is that each movement is controlled by a part of the cerebral cortex and when that part is damaged, another part of the cerebral cortex takes on that movement. Am I correct in this?

thanks!

Hi,
not quite that easy. Suggest you search "Neuroplasticity".
