En este episodio, introducimos la controversia con la neurogénesis en el humano adulto, ya que hay diferentes estudios que no obtienen los mismos resultados que los estudios que afirman que existe la neurogénesis en el hipocampo adulto. Aportamos contexto histórico y detalles neurobiológicos que permiten abordar esta controversia con mayor rigor que el habitual en la divulgación en neurociencia y neurorrehabilitación. Entrevistamos a Jon Arellano, investigador en la Universidad de Yale, para aportar una visión crítica y actualizada de la controversia de la neurogénesis.
