The project investigates adult hippocampal neurogenesis in humans, focusing on how new neurons are formed and integrated in the hippocampus throughout life. It aims to understand the implications of neurogenesis in cognitive and mood disorders, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.
The hippocampus is crucial for learning and memory and it hosts an extraordinary form of plasticity: the generation of new neurons throughout life, a process named adult hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN).
Newly generated neurons grow in a specialised niche composed of unique vascular, glial, and neuronal elements.
Impaired AHN leads to cognitive dysfunction and mood dysregulation in rodents.
Recent work by my group reveals the persistence of AHN until the tenth decade of human life, as well as impa…
