Neurogenesis
Neurogenesis is the process of generating new neurons in the brain—a phenomenon once believed impossible in adults but now recognized as essential for learning, memory, and neural repair. It has redefined our understanding of brain plasticity and regeneration.
The Neurogenesis session delves into molecular mechanisms, environmental influences, and therapeutic implications of new neuron formation in the hippocampus and other brain regions. Researchers discuss how stem-cell activity, gene expression, and lifestyle factors drive neurogenesis across the lifespan.
At the Neurogenesis Conference, neuroscientists, molecular biologists, and regenerative-medicine experts explore advances in imaging, gene therapy, and pharmacological stimulation of neuron growth. The session covers developmental neurogenesis, adult neurogenesis, and the role of neural stem cells in cognitive resilience.
This session connects cellular biology to clinical potential, demonstrating how promoting neurogenesis could combat neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive decline. Attendees will learn how exercise, diet, and enriched environments can naturally enhance neuronal renewal.
Recent studies in Neural Stem Cells reveal how manipulating growth factors and microenvironments fosters brain repair after injury or aging.
