Human brains keep growing neurons even in old age, study finds for first time

Human Brains Continue to Generate Neurons Throughout Life, Study Reveals For decades, scientists believed the human brain stopped producing new neurons after childhood. This long-held belief has been shattered by a groundbreaking study that demonstrates the brain’s remarkable ability to generate neurons even in old age. The findings challenge the traditional notion that adult brains […]

2.5 miles of neurons: World’s most complex brain map connects structure to thought

2.5 Miles of Neurons: World’s Most Complex Brain Map Connects Structure to Thought What began with a sliver of brain tissue no larger than a grain of sand has now culminated in a groundbreaking achievement in neuroscience. Scientists have successfully mapped 2.5 miles of neurons in the human brain, creating the most intricate and detailed […]
