| In a recent study by scientists in Germany, people who spent three months learning to juggle showed enlargement of part of the cerebral, cortex, the sheet of nerve cells on the brain's surface where most higher thought processes seem to be handled. However, from 6 to 9 months of age the mice exhibited increasing deposits of beta-amyloid in certain regions of the brain, including the cortex, which is responsible for higher thought as well as memory. It's a great place to do business, especially research and development, because the mellow atmosphere has a tendency to bring about higher thought processes. |
