Neuroscientist who studied Albert Einstein's brain and was the first to show that the brain's anatomy can change with experience. A professor of integrative biology at the University of California/Berkeley, she became famous in 1984 when she examined preserved slices of Einstein's brain and found it had more support cells than the average person's brain. Her ground-breaking research on rats found that the brain can improve with enrichment, while impoverished environments can lower the capacity to learn.
