Well-Rested Brain Cells Are More Ready To Learn The fly brains pictured here are expressing different levels of a particular protein involved in learning (a protein called Bruchpilot, a German word that translates to “break-pilot”, obviously). The brains on the bottom are well-rested, and the lower levels of the protein signal that a well-rested brain may be molecularly poised to learn.

Well-Rested Brain Cells Are More Ready To Learn

The fly brains pictured here are expressing different levels of a particular protein involved in learning (a protein called Bruchpilot, a German word that translates to “break-pilot”, obviously).

The brains on the bottom are well-rested, and the lower levels of the protein signal that a well-rested brain may be molecularly poised to learn.

That’s something we all knew, of course, but now you know why.
