Behavioural neuroscience: Down memory lane
J. David Sweatt1
Abstract
In mice, two treatments — environmental enrichment and a chemical that regulates gene expression — boost new memory formation and restore the recall of old memories that seemed to have been lost.
If a pill were available that could boost your memory, would you take it? Odds are, most of us would say yes.
