Weight Agnostic Neural Networks (2019, background): “For humans it is evident, especially during early childhood [46, 107], that we learn skills and form memories by forming new synaptic connections, and our brain rewires itself based on our new experiences [5, 11, 18, 50].”
Enrichment Effects on Adult Cognitive Development (2008, background): “One approach is represented by the early study of complex or enriched environments on brain function and performance in animals (Black et al., 1990; Ehninger & Kempermann, 2003; Jones et al., 1996; Kempermann, 2008; Kempermann et al., 1997; Rosenzweig & Bennett, 1996).”
Circulating Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Mediates the Protective Effects of Physical Exercise against Brain Insults of Different Etiology and Anatomy (2001, background): “Although the normal adult brain do not show angiogenesis except in response to specific types of insults (Plate, 1999), exercise stimulates angiogenesis in the adult brain (Black et al., 1990), and IGF-I is involved in angiogenesis in the brain and other tissues (Sonntag et al., 1997; Dunn, 2000).”
Exercise and Children’s Intelligence, Cognition, and Academic Achievement (2008, background): “Rats involved in exercise training that involved motoric climbing skills developed new neural connections within the cerebellum, whereas rats whose exercise was running improved in cerebral brain blood flow ( Black et al. 1990 ).”
Exercise Enhances Learning and Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Aged Mice (2005, background): “For example, activity matched to a motor skilllearning task enhanced capillary density in the cerebellum (Black et al., 1990).”
Aerobic exercise training increases brain volume in aging humans. (2006, background): “Previous research with nonhuman animals has shown that chronic aerobic exercise can lead to the growth of new capillaries in the brain (5,6), increase the length and number of the dendritic interconnections between neurons (7), and even increase cell production in the hippocampus (8).”
Physical activity, APOE genotype, and dementia risk: findings from the Cardiovascular Health Cognition Study. (2005, background): “Nonneural vascular adaptations are also enhanced with exercise, including increased cerebral blood flow and substrate exchange (48), increased cerebral capillary density (49), and decreased accumulation of radical oxidative proteins (50).”
Exercise training increases size of hippocampus and improves memory (2011, background): “Our results suggest that cell proliferation or increased dendritic branchingmight explain increased hippocampal volume and improvements in memory after exercise; however, increased vascularization (15, 16, 33) and dendritic complexity (34) may also be contributing to increased volume.”
Retrograde amnesia and memory consolidation: a neurobiological perspective. (1995, background): “Further evidence that behavioral experience can induce substantial morphological growth and change in neocorrex has come from a demonstration in rats that learning to traverse a difficult, elevated path increased by 25% the number of synapses per Purkinje cell in the paramedian lobule of the cerebel”

Aging, training, and the brain: A review and future directions (2009, unknown): “Animal research has demonstrated that aerobic exercise is associated with increased neurogenesis and angiogenesis in the brain (van Praag et al. 1999a, b, 2005; Black et al. 1990; Swain et al. 2003).”
