Neurons are constantly being replaced
Are they ? As far as I know, neurons last more or less from before birth to death. There is neurogenesis in the hippocampus but it doesn't replace existing neurons, and the new cells themselves last until death.
- Jarwain 10y agoIs this true for neurons that make up the nervous system as well? Or just neurons in the brain?
