During the study on genetically manipulated mice, the research team was able to switch on and off the animals' ability to form lasting memories by adding a substance to their drinking water.
Scientists from the Institute of Healthy Ageing at University College London (UCL) extended the lifespan of mice by up to a fifth and reduced the number of age-related diseases affecting the animals after they genetically manipulated them to block production of the S6 Kinase 1 (S6K1) protein.
