View the Adult Neurogenesis talk session on demand.
Summary
This session highlights adult neurogenesis in humans and in brain regions outside the hippocampus and olfactory bulb. It also covers fundamental aspects of neural stem cell biology, including the use of organoids in modeling the complexity of brain function in health and disease.
Webinar objectives
- Review the current state of knowledge regarding adult neurogenesis in humans
- Discuss the latest concepts in neural stem cell regulation, most notably metabolic mechanisms
- Discover current developments in methodology and general concepts in adult neurogenesis
