For over a decade, neuroscientists have been trying to figure out how neurogenesis (the birth of new neurons) and neuroplasticity (the malleability of neural circuits) work together to reshape how we ...

Neural precursor cells (green) are have been difficult to identify in human brians. For at least six decades, neuroscientists have been arguing over a big, foundational question: Do adult brains make ...

An international collaborative study led by Australian scientists at the University of Queensland in Brisbane has demonstrated that dietary selenium supplementation mediates exercise-induced adult ...

New research published in the journal Neuroscience provides evidence that nitrous oxide may be an effective treatment for ...

Researchers have demonstrated the positive impact of exercise in the treatment of mice with PTSD-like symptoms, investigating the underlying biology of the association. Recent research led by Paul ...

Neuroscientists have known for decades that aerobic exercise—such as running, brisk walking, or doing cardio on stationary equipment—stimulates the birth of new neurons (neurogenesis) in the ...

Neuroscientist and mindset coach Emily McDonald is sharing four ways to boost the birth of new brain cells, a process known as neurogenesis -- exercise, meditation, polyphenol-rich foods and sunlight.

Destroying senescent cells in the aging stem cell niche enhances hippocampal neurogenesis and cognitive function in mice, researchers report. Destroying senescent cells in the aging stem cell niche ...

Research found the choroid plexus and cerebrospinal fluid play a key role in maintaining a pool of newly born neurons to repair the adult brain after injury. University of Cincinnati researchers have ...

The results of research in mice, headed by a team of researchers at the University of Queensland, has provided new insights into how exercise may help to prevent or slow cognitive decline during aging ...
