"In the normal person the frontal lobe is one of the most highly active areas of the brain," says Buchsbaum, calling up an image on his computer. He points at a brightly colored cross-section of a ...

And when the researchers did that, the picture of "normal" brain development changed dramatically. For instance, when the sample reflected the U.S. population, children's brains reached several ...

So you could envision some time in the future how this could be applied to those with memory deficits to help them have more normal lives ... the process in rat brain cells cultured in a plate, and ...
