Epigenetics
▪ The ability of the neurons to change their function, chemical profile ( I would love to
have a speech regarding the amount and types of neurotransmitters )
What is Epigenetics?
▪ All the genetic modifications excluding changes in the actual DNA
sequence.
▪ Neurogenesis may even help protect against Alzheimer's, since the death of
brain cells is linked to the disease (although many other factors also contribute
to the disorder).
▪ Neurobics are brain exercises that emphasize unexpected stimuli. Studies have
found these activities can improve memory.
