What if your brain at 77 were as plastic as it was at 7? What if you could learn Mandarin with the ease of a toddler or play Rachmaninoff without breaking a sweat? A growing understanding of neuroplasticity suggests these fantasies could one day become reality. Neuroplasticity may also be the key to solving diseases like Alzheimer’s, depression, and autism. In this program, leading neuroscientists discuss their most recent findings and both the tantalizing possibilities and pitfalls for our future cognitive selves.

CIA Drug Trafficking Allegations
Committee members heard testimony concerning allegations that the

Central Intelligence Agency facilitated the introduction and spread

of crack cocaine in U.S. urban areas in order to fund Contra

activities in Nicaragua. Representative Millender-McDonald

testified that the report by the CIA Inspector-General was incorrect

and that the committee must pursue its own investigation of the

matter to uncover those responsible for this activity.

Inspector-General Hitz outlined his office’s report which finds no

evidence of any links between the CIA and drug traffickers in Central

America.
####

CIA rep Frederick P. Hitz is grilled by Maxine Waters and others at a congressional hearing spurred by the expose by Gary Webb of the San Jose Mercury News.

SYNOPSIS: From lab-grown organs to tissue engineering, regenerative medicine holds the potential to deliver eternal life. How close are we to this new future of human health? Developmental biologists, biomedical engineers, regenerative scientists, and physicians for a riveting exploration of the current and future state of regenerative medicine.

FULL PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: Synthetic blood mass-produced to meet supply shortages. Livers and kidneys “bioprinted” on demand. Missing fingers and toes re-grown with a jolt of bioelectricity. Regenerative medicine promises to do more than just treat disease, injuries, or congenital conditions. It holds the potential to rejuvenate, heal, or completely replace damaged tissue and organs. If successful, regenerative medicine will have immense impact on how we care for the injured, sick, and aging — and how we think about death. This program will explore mind-boggling medical advances as well as the societal and economic implications of a future in which everybody may truly be forever young.
