| | | | Hi there, It turns out that thinking too much is bad for you, and may even shorten your life. Yup. A new study from Nature found that people who lived extremely long lives (beyond their mid-80s) had higher levels of a protein called REST, which essentially tells the genes that spark brain activity to chill out. This is bad news for a lot of CBI newsletter subscribers, who def tend to think a lot. I’m sorry. On a slightly related note, here’s some research on machine-brain interfaces and neuroprosthetics if you’re into that sort of thing. | | | | | |
