Plasticity in the Adult Brain
One of the most interesting forms of plasticity observed in the brains of adults is neurogenesis, the birth of new brain cells. Professors Brenowitz and Hen will discuss their studies of neurogenesis in adult birds and rodents, and the potential for exploiting plasticity for the treatment of damaged human brains.

This free lecture is made possible by generous endowments from Professors Allen L. Edwards and Roger B. Loucks.
