Neural stem cells and neurogenesis in the adult.
Research in the field of adult neurogenesis has seen substantial progress over recent years. Here we discuss some of the major focus areas for future investigation: neural stem cell heterogeneity, the role of latent stem cells, and the extent of neurogenesis in the adult human brain.
