Imagine the brain could reboot, updating its damaged cells with new, improved units. That may sound like science fiction — but it’s a potential reality scientists are investigating right now. Ralitsa Petrova details the science behind neurogenesis and explains how we might harness it to reverse diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

Kevin Keller says:

My answer to this question is: YES!

9 years ago I had an accident in which I fell on my head and fell into a coma of 2 months. After waking up out of coma, I heard the doctors telling my dad I'd never be able to talk nor to walk and exactly that drove me to work on myself to be able to do this things. I tried every day to walk even though the nurses told me not to, or I'd hurt myself. After 2 weeks I could walk again and after 3 weeks my first words were "Happy birthday mom". So never lose the beliefs and never lose the will to work on yourself, even if it my take decades.
My point is; IF the brain believes in itself, it can achieve wonders, as long as it never loses the believes in itself!!

Could your brain repair itself?
YES IT CAN!
