Recently I've been studying the general neurological profile of gifted individuals throughout history, and what I've found is that there are several factors at play when characterizing genius brains :
- Increased concentrations of Glial cells
- Few dopamine receptors in the thalamus
- Greater neuron density in the frontal lobe, causing long and short connection prioritization
- A lot of Gray matter and White matter
So far I've only been able to figure out how to induce some of these effects : better sleep and exercise can increase blood flow to the frontal lobe, dopamine receptors can be manipulated via neuroplasticity and some other general habits that can better cognitive function ( learning a language, playing an instrument, Omega 3 etc. ).
What are your thoughts on the brain structure of genius? Any other suggestions on how to improve cognitive function?
