And then they figured out how to turn those neurons on and off.
Are we victims of our own neuronal activity?
Is that something we can change?
Their immediate findings were astounding.
Essentially, they developed a map of mice neuronal activity associated with selfishness and prosocial behavior.
Its important not to get ahead of the research here, as this is very early.
Not to mention the fact that mice brains and human brains are not the same.
That being said, this is exciting news for a number of reasons.
This could make early diagnosis and intervention possible for a vast number of associated conditions.
Furthermore, it represents a significant landmark in our ongoing endeavor to map the entire human brain.
There are approximately 86 billion neurons in our brains.
Itd be like taking vitamins that made you more likely to share.
Then again, we already have that.
Its called social media.
