Can we, as adults, grow new nerve cells? There's still some confusion about that question, as this is a fairly new field of research. For example, I was talking to one of my colleagues, Robert, who is an oncologist, and he was telling me, "Sandrine, this is puzzling. Some of my ...
new brain cells–which are called neurons–grow in the hippocampus. This is the region of the brain that is responsible for learning information, storing long-term memories, and regulating emotions. This has many different
How to Activate Brain Cells Scientists used to think that your brain stopped growing new cells once you reached adulthood. Happily, current research shows that it isn’t true! As you get older, you can continue to grow new brain cells. Get regular aerobic(有氧的) exercise. Research shows ...
For the first time, scientists can use skin samples from older patients to create brain cells without rolling back the youthfulness clock in the cells first. The new technique, which yields cells resembling those found in older people's brains, will be a boon to scientists studying age-related...
The study published on Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, outlined how a protein called CPEB3 primes neurons to store memories that stand the test of time in mouse cells. The findings offered a never-before-seen view into one of the brain's most universal and ...
Trading puts a lot of stress on our brains. Stress hurts our brains. This talk sums up the latest understanding in neuroscience on how to keep our brains healthy. In short, to stay smart one needs to exercise, rest well, eat well and active learning. The extra part about sex … well,...
Of 100 billion nerve cells in the human brain, how many form after birth For years, the official answer was "zero". Scientists thought people were born with all the neurons they’d ever have. But from 1980s, biologists overturned that doctrine, finding a reservoir of stem cells that becam...
How To Produce More Brain Cells Some time ago, scientists believe that neurogenesis stops after your birth. However, recent discoveries reveal that adults' hippocampus still produces new brain neuros cells. So how can we increase neurogenesis? Actually it's not that hard to do and we could ...
