The question of new neural cells forming in adulthood had been one of the most important ones in neuroscience, and now it's been resolved.
Yes, neural cells continue to form in adulthood and even in old age, the oldest sample studied was from a 78-year-old man.
Why is this important?
It means it's never too late to change your life and habits, recover from trauma, and heal the damage.
Here's to , which is based on and quantum physics.
Continuous adult hippocampal neurogenesis is involved in memory formation and mood regulation but is challenging to study in humans. Difficulties finding proliferating progenitor cells called into question whether and how new neurons may be generated. We ...
