How much of the brain do we understand? Thanks to brain imaging techniques, scientists have a much better understanding of the brain today than they did in the past. Despite these advances, there are still many aspects of the brain that researchers do not yet know. Future research will most...
1. The growth of new brain cells can help with bad mood and mental diseases such as depression. 2. Learning and doing sports that can bring blood to your brain can increase new growing brain cells. 3. Stress, lack of sleep and growing older decreases growing brain cells. 4. Healthy diet...
Do some organs have no stem cells? In adults some organs like the brain appear to have relatively few true stem cells. The argument has been made that the adult human brain may have no real stem cell-based regenerative capacity, in which case functionally speaking there may be no stem cell...
WASHINGTON, Aug. 12 (Xinhua) -- The U.S. scientists have mapped a part of the molecular machinery that helps the brain maintain long-term memories, providing new targets against Alzheimer's disease characterized by memory loss. The study published on Monday in the Proceedings of the National ...
While experimenting with novel ways of staining brain tissue, he stumbled across these new cells and named them after the ancient Greek words for “small” and “glue”. This turned out to be an ill-fitting description. Other than their splotchy appearance, microglia have few glue-like...
do, but Min-Hyuk is just the most brilliant human being. I don’t even care about the grades. Da- Hae and I absolutely adored him. Do you know what I mean? KI-WOO Of course. YON-KYO We just loved him so much. I wanted him to stay with Da-Hae through her college exams ...
When a person thinks, speaks, eats, walks, or just sits comfortably with all bodily systems functioning normally, the billions of cells that make up the brain and the rest of the nervous system are hard at work. The brain is an information-processing organ, and the brain cells that ...
Really helpful for motivating me as we move into the busy holiday period where it’s easy to neglect the body (or get into various bad habits!) and get into a negative rather than a positive cycle. I especially love this: “You have much more power than ever believed to influence ...
cells multiplying also stops the newborn neurons being generated in their brain." And then Robert looked at me like I was crazy and said, "But Sandrine, these are adult patients -- adults do not grow new nerve cells." And much to his surprise, I said, "Well actually, we do." And ...
