Brain Cells Keep Growing Even in Old Age, Study Finds
A new study reveals that neurons in the brain’s memory center, the hippocampus, continue to form well into late adulthood. A recent study published in Science offers strong new evidence that the human brain continues to generate neurons in the hippocampus, its key memory region, well into later stages of life. Conducted by researchers at [...]
The brain can generate new neurons even in adulthood, and some foods can favor this process, according to Dr. Sara Marin in one of her social media videos. Marín, known as @uncafecontudoctora, highlighted the role of BDNF (a neurotrophic factor derived from the brain), a protein that functions as a “natural fertilizer” for neuronal growth. “Before we thought we couldn’t create new neurons, but now we know that there is a protein called BDNF that…
For the first time, Swedish researchers have traced all stages of the birth of new neurons in adults.


Dementia Study Retracted; MRI Reveals Aging Speed; New Neurons in Adult Brains
(MedPage Today) -- Research that tied wildfire smoke exposure and dementia risk was retracted and replaced by the authors due a coding error. (JAMA Neurology) A novel measure calculated from a single brain MRI predicted aging patterns. (Nature...
Although we know that, when it comes to science, few discoveries gain certainty of inconsistencies, this does not mean that we cannot reach certain conclusions. One of them is encouraging: therefore, depending on recent research, aging is not synonymous (neuural) to conceive. A new study, which uses artificial intelligence and advanced genetic analysis, presents... The post Research indicates the birth of new neurons in adults who appeared first…
Can adults make new brain cells? New study may finally settle one of neuroscience’s greatest debates
By Theresa Sullivan Barger – Live Science Researchers say they have found clear evidence that the human brain can keep making new neurons well into adulthood, potentially settling decades of controversy. This new neuron growth, or “neurogenesis,” takes place in the hippocampus, a critical part of the brain involved in learning, memory and emotions. “In short, our work puts to rest the long-standing debate about whether adult human brains can gro…
