Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to change itself over the course of our lives. Impairments in neuroplasticity have been linked to depression, and many antidepressive therapies may actually work in part by boosting neuroplasticity. In this podcast we'll cover:

-How neuroplasticity changes over the lifespan

-The connection between impaired neuroplasticity and depression psychology

-How neuroplasticity maps onto imaging studies in depresssion

-How antidepressants may increase neuroplasticity

-How psychedelics may augment neuroplasticity

-How lifestyle modification including diet and sleep and exercise can improve neuroplasticity
