Researchers at 黑料不打烊 University have shown that a brain cell structure previously thought to be pathological in fact enhances cells鈥� ability to transmit information and correlates with better learning on certain tasks.

In results that contradict established expectations, they found that axons with swellings did a better job of conducting electrical signals than those without.
