Sleep easy. On page 1313 of this issue, Fred Gage and colleagues in La Jolla and Göteburg report that the adult human brain is capable of neurogenesis. Most cells are continually dividing ...

This is a surprising finding because neurogenesis levels in rodents and other lab animals contribute to a different type of learning and memory using visuospatial skills. The role of neurogenesis ...

Understanding how new neurons affect brain function throughout adulthood can offer new approaches to treating epilepsy and dementia.

However, certain regions continue to produce neurons throughout life. This process, though rare and limited, is called neurogenesis. For a long time, scientists debated the true importance of this ...
