Michael Matthias Merzenich (/ˈmɜːrzənɪk/ MURR-zə-nik; born 1942 in Lebanon, Oregon) is a professor emeritus neuroscientist at the University of California, San Francisco. His contributions to the field are numerous. He took the sensory cortex maps developed by his predecessors (Archie Tunturi, Clinton Woolsey, Vernon Mountcastle, Wade Marshall, and Philip Bard) and refined them using dense micro-electrode mapping techniques. Using this, he definitively showed there to be multiple somatotopic maps of the body in the postcentral sulcus, and multiple tonotopic maps of the acoustic inputs in the superior temporal plane.

  • Michael Merzenich, née en 1942, est un neuroscientifique et professeur émérite américain. Il enseigne à l'Université de Californie à San Francisco depuis 1980. Il est connu pour ses recherches sur la plasticité cérébrale. Il est membre de l'Académie nationale des sciences depuis 1999 et il a reçu, en 2016, le prix Kavli avec Eve Marder et Carla J. Shatz pour la découverte des mécanismes qui permettent la neuromodulation des réseaux neuronaux. (fr)
  • Michael Merzenich (Libano, 1942) è un neuroscienziato statunitense presso l'Università della California a San Francisco. Ha vinto il e il premio Kavli nel 2016. Pionere nel campo delle neuroscienze e sulla scoperta della neuroplasticità cerebrale, studiò e prese le mappe sensoriali della corteccia cerebrale sviluppate dai suoi predecessori come Archie Tunturi, Clinton Woolsey, Vernon Mountcastle, Wade Marshall e Philip Bard, e le raffinò usando le tecniche di mappatura a micro-elettrodi densi. Usando questa tecnica, ha definitivamente mostrato che ci sono molteplici mappe somatotopiche nel solco postcentrale e molteplici mappe tonotopiche degli input acustici nel piano temporale superiore.
