Abstract excerpt
Adult hippocampal neurogenesis-the generation of new neurons in the adult brain-declines with age, contributing to cognitive deficits in aging. While the majority of mammalian studies on neurogenesis have utilized inbred mouse strains, these models do not fully capture the genetic diversity of humans, limiting the translational relevance of their findings. The Diversity Outbred (DO) mouse model, a genetically...
