Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to cognitive function? Researchers know that new neurons contribute to memory ...

Challenging a long-standing assumption regarding the adult brain, recent research has demonstrated that individuals can ...

We found that new neurons in the adult brain are linked to reduced cognitive decline—particularly in verbal learning, or learning by listening to others. Researchers know that new neurons contribute ...

For more than a decade, there’s been growing proof that adult humans can form new neurons in the hippocampus, but scientists were still missing evidence of a missing link known as “neural progenitor ...

Exercise can have benefits at the level of neurons, through chemical and mechanical effects, researchers find. The discovery could inform exercise-related therapies for repairing damaged and ...

There's no doubt that exercise does a body good. Regular activity not only strengthens muscles but can bolster our bones, ...

This eBook explores the latest advances in iPSC-derived models, highlighting how they bridge preclinical and clinical ...

Your brain can still make new neurons when you’re an adult. But how does the rare birth of these new neurons contribute to ...

MIT scientists find that motor neuron growth increased significantly over 5 days in response to biochemical (left) and mechanical (right) signals related to exercise. The green ball represents cluster ...
