Wow, thanks Forest, for posting the Norman Doidge video.
I loved the segment on autism and how autistic children don't have the auditory zoom circuit in the brain, like we do. So they are hypersensitive to sounds. Neuroplasticity allows for training of the circuit for auditory zoom, which lowers hypersensitivity in autistic children. Amazing that the child Dr Doidge spoke about was able to sleep properly, and hug his parents, after just a few days of training the brain.
