“Gray Matter in the Brain” is an engaging podcast that explores the fascinating world of neuroscience. This podcast examines the changes in gray matter in the human brain from childhood to old age, noting an increase until age eight and subsequent decline as we age. It highlights the accelerated decrease in gray matter in Alzheimer’s patients and discusses the unusual patterns observed in professional gamers, whose hippocampus size is smaller and does not regenerate normally despite increases in gray matter.
