The “missing link” helps adults grow new neurons—something long thought to end after childhood—and that discovery could lead ...

Scientists in Austria are studying live human brain cells and comparing them to those of mice. Their findings raise new ...

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 ...

Not only do neural progenitors persist in the adult brain, but many of these cells are in active stages of division.

A research team has identified, for the first time in humans, and in a realistic environment, a key neurophysiological ...

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

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 ...

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

Scientists discovered that the brain keeps making new neurons even in adulthood, offering hope for brain health treatments.

A groundbreaking study from Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet reveals that the human brain continues to grow new neurons even ...

The researchers also found large differences between individuals -- some adult humans had many neural progenitor cells, ...

"We have now been able to identify these cells of origin, which confirms that there is an ongoing formation of neurons in the hippocampus of the adult brain," says Jonas Frisen, Professor of Stem Cell ...
