María Llorens-Martín

María Llorens-Martín is a senior researcher at the Severo Ochoa Molecular Biology Center in Spain. She is known for her contributions to the study of neurogenesis and has provided significant evidence that the human brain can generate new neurons well into old age. Llorens-Martín's prior research highlighted the ongoing neurogenic processes in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, reinforcing the concept that neurogenesis persists throughout a person's life. Her insights are crucial for understanding the implications of neurogenesis in aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
