The most striking neuroplasticity finding ever IMO is pairing of nucleus basalis (cholinergic) stimulation + experience = massive & rapid plasticity.
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
they stimulate nucleus basalis and paired that stimulation with eight kilohertz tone or um in some cases they could also stimulate a different brain area the ventral tegmental area which causes the release of dopamine and pair it with a tone and in it seemed in every one of these cases they observed massive plasticity
