Elderly mice have their youthful brains restored

Neuroscientists from the University of California “rejuvenated” the brains of adult mice: scientists were able to reactivate the plasticity of certain areas of the brain, which is characteristic of baby mice during a special, critical period in the development of the central nervous system, when it is most susceptible to learning and easily forms new stable functional connections. More details about the results of the study can be found in the journal Neuron.
