Abstract
The mechanisms underlying cognitive impairment in epilepsy remain poorly understood. Ammothumkandy et al.1 reveal that the loss of adult immature neurons correlates with auditory verbal learning deficits in human mesial temporal lobe epilepsy during a critical disease period, underscoring the pivotal role of adult neurogenesis in specific cognitive domain.
