A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...

While neurogenesis—the growth of new brain cells—typically slows with age, superagers produce new neurons in the hippocampus at twice the rate of healthy older adults. In contrast, individuals with ...

Not only do our brains appear to generate new neurons into adulthood, but those of superagers contain far more brain cells in development than those of healthy peers, new research has found. According ...

Some older adults with exceptional memory grow far more new neurons in the hippocampus, while Alzheimer’s brains show almost ...

A new study has found that SuperAgers also grow more neurons than other older adults groups, helping to keep their brains healthy. As we age, it’s not uncommon for the brain to change in ways that can ...

A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

A team of researchers from Israel and the US say their findings about biological brain flexibility in a new peer-reviewed ...

When you get better at a skill-recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game-sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...

Brains of older adults with super-healthy cognition grow more new neurons than those of their peers, according to a study ...

Most of us were taught as kids that you don't get new neurons as an adult. The party line was that by the time you were old enough to care what a neuron was, you had all that you would ever have, and ...

Researchers from Harvard University have unveiled a groundbreaking method for growing a specific type of brain cell, called corticospinal neurons, that are central to conditions like amyotrophic ...

Cancer tumors hijack the vagus nerve to communicate with the brain, triggering a hormonal response that suppresses the immune system.
