BERLIN: A German scientist has been testing an "anti-stupidity" pill with encouraging results on mice and fruit flies, Bild newspaper reported Saturday.
It said Hans-Hilger Ropers, director at Max-Planck-Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin, has tested a pill thwarting hyperactivity in certain brain nerve cells, helping stabilize short-term memory and improve attentiveness.
"With mice and fruit flies we were able to eliminate the loss of short-term memory," Ropers, 62, is quoted saying in the German newspaper, which has dubbed it the "world's first anti-stupidity pill."
Extremely interresting! maybe the moroccan government ought to use this so it can change the effects of the "KARKOUBI" pills they used in the past to make the moroccans dumd when drinking tap water! LOL
is that not stupid!....don't understand!....short therm memory & less concentration doesn't mean stupidity...so a drug against it will not be necesserly against the "stupidity"...the word "stupidity"is very relative and its definition is different from a person to an other one...it's above all not an illness ...so how could we find any remedy...just like the intelligence.....are there any pills for intelligence .......
