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 ...
About a decade ago, neuroscientists at the University College London published some fascinating research on the brain size and structure of London taxi drivers. In short: the cabbies’ brains were ...
