[ExI] old brains made young

[Jeff Davis]

You all should find this interesting.

The flip of a single molecular switch helps create the mature neuronal
connections that allow the brain to bridge the gap between adolescent
impressionability and adult stability. Now Yale School of Medicine
researchers have reversed the process, recreating a youthful brain that
facilitated both learning and healing in the adult mouse.

I found it on Brian Wang's blog Next Big Future.
