Neurogenesis

As recently as two decades ago, scientists believed we were born with all the neurons we would ever have. But the discovery of neurogenesis occurring in certain brain areas in monkeys gave rise to the hope that someday scientists will be able to induce the adult human brain to heal itself.

Neurogenesis is effectual during embryonic development and completely through adult life in different organisms.
