Neurogenesis in the adult brain I [electronic resource] : Neurobiology / Tatsunori Seki [and others], editors.

The discovery of adult neurogenesis caused a paradigm shift in the neurosciences. For more than 100 years, it was believed that adult neurons do not regenerate. Joseph Altman and Fernando Nottebohm found proof to the contrary and changed the course of history. Their research, included here, provides...
