A Drug That Could Give You Perfect Visual Memory
A group of Spanish researchers reported today in Science that they may have stumbled upon a substance that could become the ultimate memory-enhancer. The group was studying a poorly-understood region of the visual cortex. They found that if they boosted production of a protein called RGS-14 (pictured) in that area of the visual cortex in mice, it dramatically affected the animals’ ability to remember objects they had seen.
Mice with the RGS-14 boost could remember objects they had seen for up to two months. Ordinarily the same mice would only be able to remember these objects for about an hour.

Inglourious Basterds International trailer - Sure does look Tarantino-y, whatever the means anymore. Film actually has a chance to be enjoyable if not balls-out awesome! Like balls all out. I’m officially looking forward to it now.
