Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The adult mammalian brain has the capacity to generate neural stem cells and neural progenitor cells with neurogenic potential. Over the past few decades, new approaches have revealed the regenerative capacity of the adult brain and have begun to discover their potential role in maintaining a healthy brain and assisting with disease states. This Special Issue will discuss the current knowledge on the capacity of the mammalian brain to generate the stem/progenitor cells and their role in several disease states.
