The brain is a complex organ that controls thought, memory, emotion, touch, motor skills, vision, breathing, temperature and hunger among other processes that regulate our body 1. It is made up of different systems that work together to carry out these functions. One emerging theory concerning the functional structure of the brain takes neural reuse - the reuse of neural circuitry for various cognitive purposes - to be a central organizational principle 2.

According to neural reuse theories, circuits can continue to acquire new uses after an initial or original function is established. The acquisition of new uses need not involve unusual circumstances such as injury or loss of established function; and the acquisition of a new use need not involve (much) local change to circuit structure. It might involve only the establishment of functional connections to new neural partners 1.

One example of neural reuse can be seen in the development of expertise. As a person becomes an expert in a particular field, there is a decrease of cerebral activation at the beginning of acquisition of expertise and functional cerebral reorganization as a consequence of years of practice 1.
