New Ideas Change Your Brain Cells

And what is your doctor doing to stimulate your brain with new ideas? Mine did absolutely nothing, probably hadn't one since childhood. This sounds like enriched environment stimulation to me.

A new University of British Columbia study identifies an important molecular change that occurs in the brain when we learn and remember.
Published in Nature Neuroscience, the research shows that learning stimulates our brain cells in a manner that causes a small fatty acid to attach to delta-catenin, a protein in the brain. This biochemical modification is essential in producing the changes in brain cell connectivity associated with learning, the study finds.
In animal models, the scientists found almost twice the amount of modified delta-catenin in the brain after learning about new environments. While delta-catenin has previously been linked to learning, this study is the first to describe the protein’s role in the molecular mechanism behind memory formation.
