Thanks! You have been invaluable in searching the literature for us all, and letting us know about the newest research. This article reminds me of several others I have read in the last two years indicating that, under non-depressed conditions, the hippocampus gives birth to at least several thousand new neurons every day throughout our lifespans. it's when the hippocampus DOESN'T do this that depression occurs. Sorry not to have any references- i really should have at least one for you!
