Contrary to previous studies, new scientific discoveries show that our brains can change through new cell production (neurogenesis) and cell connectivity (neuroplasticity).
Featured segments:
Eric Kandel, M.D., winner of the 2000 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, explains defines neurogenesis and new cell production.
Award-winning writer Sharon Begley, science editor for Newsweek, and author of Train Your Mind, Change Your Brain, explains how neuroplasticity can help stroke victims, give insight into brain cancer, and more.
[...] Healthy Minds makes medical jargon and brain concepts at the forefront of modern medicine, like neurogenesis and neuroplasticity, easy to understand. The series also explores proactive steps viewers can take [...]
