A pair of new studies have provided fresh evidence in the long-running scientific debate—and the result could be ...
A look inside the brains of extraordinarily sharp elderly people reveals clues about their unusual abilities. Deep in these ...
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 ...
"This is biological proof that their brains are more plastic, and a real discovery that shows that neurogenesis of young ...

Most brains slow down with age—but not all. Scientists just learned why ‘superagers’ stay sharp.
Studying the minds of octogenarians with surprising cognitive resilience shows how it's possible to maintain a youthful brain ...
Superagers’ memory capacity rivals that of younger adults. A new study suggests their brains’ robust production of new neurons may be why.
Not only do our brains appear to generate new neurons into adulthood, but those of superagers contain far more brain cells in ...
Adults whose brains still have strong neuron production seem to have better memory and cognitive function than do those in ...
A new study has found that SuperAgers also grow more neurons than other older adults groups, helping to keep their brains ...
Some older adults with exceptional memory grow far more new neurons in the hippocampus, while Alzheimer’s brains show almost ...
Researchers used single-nucleus RNA sequencing and chromatin accessibility profiling to map human hippocampal neurogenesis across adulthood, aging, and Alzheimer’s disease. They found that chromatin ...
For over a decade, neuroscientists have been trying to figure out how neurogenesis (the birth of new neurons) and neuroplasticity (the malleability of neural circuits) work together to reshape how we ...
