In particular, exercise modifies the structure and function of the hippocampus, a brain area important for learning and memory. This review addresses the central and peripheral mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of exercise on the hippocampus. We focus on running-induced changes in adult hippocampal neurogenesis, neural circuitry, neurotrophins, synaptic plasticity, neurotransmitters, and vasculature. The role of peripheral factors in hippocampal plasticity is also highlighted. We discuss recent evidence that systemic factors released from peripher- al organs such as muscle (myokines), liver (hepatokines), and adipose tissue (adipokines) during exercise contribute to hippocampal neurotrophin and neurogenesis levels, and memory function. A comprehensive understanding of the body–brain axis is needed to elucidate how exercise improves hippocampal plasticity and cognition. here is a global increase in physical inactivity for learning and memory and exhibits extensive T(Guthold et al. 2008; Dumith et al. 2011; functional plasticity in response to exercise.

My name is John Attanasio, and I am Dean of the SMU Dedman School of Law.' It is my pleasure to welcome you here this morn- ing. The law school has a very rich intellectual life, not only in the class- room, but also outside the classroom. On January 28-29, 2013, Justice Antonin Scalia visited SMU as a Dis- tinguished Jurist in Residence.2 Our own Professor Bryan Garner joined him on January 28 in presenting their book3 to a sold-out audience.4 This is our fifth time doing this event.
