A Brain Unfixed: Unlimited Neurogenesis and Regeneration of the Adult Planarian Nervous System

Powerful genetic tools in classical laboratory models have been fundamental to our understanding of how stem cells give rise to complex neural tissues during embryonic development. In contrast, adult neurogenesis in our model systems, if present, is typically constrained to one or a few zones of the...
