Could your brain repair itself?

Title:
Could your brain repair itself?
Speaker:
Ralitsa Petrova
Description:

Imagine the brain could reboot, updating its damaged cells with new, improved units. That may sound like science fiction — but it's a potential reality scientists are investigating right now. Ralitsa Petrova details the science behind neurogenesis and explains how we might harness it to reverse diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. [Directed by Outis, narrated by Addison Anderson].
