A groundbreaking study shows that the human hippocampus continues producing new neurons well into late adulthood.

Researchers from Sweden have discovered that the human brain continues to grow new cells in the memory region—called the hippocampus—even into old age. Using advanced tools to examine brain samples ...

The team’s findings showed that these neuronal predecessors are indeed present in the hippocampus throughout adulthood, ...

Now, researchers at Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet say they’ve found the clearest answer yet. They report the discovery of ...

A study in the journal Science presents compelling new evidence that neurons in the brain's memory centre, the hippocampus, ...

New neurons in your brain? A landmark study from Karolinska Institutet finds adults keep forming brain cells into the old age ...

In the cerebral cortex, numerous neurons exchange information through junctions known as synapses. The strength of each ...

Accurate morphological reconstruction of neurons in whole brain images is critical for brain science research. However, due to the wide range of whole brain imaging, uneven staining, and optical ...

Results Data from 471 children presenting with headaches were analyzed. Eleven of the children with chronic headache and MRI were excluded due to their known neurological disorder. Twenty-five ...
