The team funded by Wellcome Trust and BBSRC shared that we improve out intelligence and perceptual abilities by altering the way how neurons respond to external stimuli. [“ So can we cure mentally ill or retarded patients by working on this information?” – Topics: WhatSoEver ] The scientists said that these changes affect the strength and working of neurons as well as increases the accuracy of brain’s reaction or response over particular information. The team revealed that the glutamate coupling to NMDA receptors worked to affect the quality and accuracy of a response. The study was made on a primate model to differentiate different mechanisms of brain at the receptor level. Alex Thiele, ...
