"A specific protein in the hippocampus area of the brain is essential for memory. In recent tests in mice, increasing the levels of that protein, increased memory." NBC news
What good potential news for people with memory difficulties and those people who love them. It would be so wonderful if brain research would result in a simple, effective way to prevent and/or eliminate dementia and neurological disorders, like Parkinson's Disease. With the research just in mice, it will be some time before we humans see benefit; but it is hopeful.
