How to grow new neurons raise yourself and your children

Dr. Dhanisha Jhaveri is the expert in neurognesis, the process of neuronal growth and maturation. For a long time, scientists believed that new neurons in the human brain can grow only until age of 24-26 years. But Dhanisha was one of the scietists who proved that neurogenesis continues in the adult brain. This discovery made on mice and it changed a lot in what we know about learning, neuronal plasticity, cognitive aging and stress. • Dhanisha explains how physical activity, pregnancy, social interaction, depression and stress affect neurogenesis. • Actually, stress can be different, not always bad, we discuss it too as well as stress-copipng strategies. • In this episode Dr. Jhaveri will share how to stay cognitively young and be stress resilient. • Enjoy and don't forget to share, like and subscribe! • Timestamps • 2:06 They were the first, but no one believed them • 6:00 New methods caused a renaissance in neurogenesis • 7:33 How immunolabeling works in simple words • 10:28 Neurogenesis during learning a song • 12:16 To grow a brain in a Pétri dish: is it possible and the reason to do so • 14:03 Dhanisha, Indian neuroscientist • 16:41 Career-changing question • 18:22 Four adult brain regions where new neurons can develop • 22:07 When a brain injury reverses the age of neurons • 23:32 Do neuronal birth and death always go together? • 26:11 A little “social” party of neurons: how do newborn neurons integrate into existing brain circuits? • 28:40 The core of neurogenesis: what’s important to understand • 29:52 The effects of learning on neurogenesis • 30:57 A beauty secret from neuroscientists • 31:05 Loneliness, love and brain health • 31:58 How to help the elderly population to slow down aging and degeneration of neurons • 32:50 How your lifestyle influences neuronal plasticity and brain health • 33:33 Stress and neurogenesis • 34:28 Good and bad stress, what cortisol does, when stress damages health • 37:30 Stress, neuronal plasticity and depression • 39:35 Dhanisha’s discovery for depression treatment • 40:20 Ideas for stress management by a brain researcher • 42:20 Outlook for future research: resilience to stress • 42:50 Stress in children • 44:50 A good strategy to be stress-resilient • 45:22 How learning in childhood biologically supports your brain in the adulthood • 46:52 Maternal stress causes long-term depression in children • 47:57 Brain as hardware • 48:21 Pregnancy as a factor for neuronal plasticity and child-bonding • 51:54 Antidepressants, stem cell activity and neuronal plasticity • 54:15 Which neurons are killed by stress faster and how it happens • 56:17 How to become a great scientist: the strength of honesty
