%X In the past decades, interest has grown on the mechanisms of early brain plasticity and their implications for newborns and infants with brain damage. Early brain damage triggers complex processes of adaptive neuroplasticity, which involve various functional systems and are highly influenced by the environment. Understanding the complex process of reorganization of neural functions through adaptive plasticity is a fast-growing field of research that has the potential to prompt more targeted and evidence-based interventions to promote neurodevelopment. The objective of this special issue was to collect scientific reports and literature reviews, from both animal models and human studies, contributing to a better understanding of the characteristics of early adaptive neuroplasticity following early brain damage
