Explore the fascinating world of adult neuroplasticity in this 29-minute video lecture from Wondrium. Discover how the adult brain can continue to grow and change throughout life, challenging common misconceptions about brain development. Learn about neurogenesis, the formation of new neurons, and how it occurs in adults. Examine scientific evidence from studies on songbirds, rodents, and humans that support ongoing neuroplasticity. Understand the factors that enhance neurogenesis, such as exercise and musical training, as well as those that impair it, like stress. Investigate how brain volume increases through new neuronal connections and why life satisfaction often improves with age. Delve into the importance of social interaction for maintaining cognitive sharpness in older adults, and gain insights into the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and learn at any stage of life.
