Number of neurons

16 billion (16 000 000 000) neurons in the cerebral cortex A person is born with 14-16 billion cells in the brain. This is a constant number, but after 25 years it starts to decrease by about 100,000 per day. In 40-year-olds, the death of brain cells becomes faster, and in 50-year-olds, the process of drying out of nerve cells (neurons) begins, which reduces the volume of the brain as a whole. |
