Hi,

This may be a stupid question, but I have no idea.
I’ve seen this term being thrown around and a google search including Wikipedia shows a much complicated definition.

Can someone ELI5 me what is Long-Term Potentiation?

My guess is that it means using something that will have a permanent-like effect?

Thank you in advance!

Beats me, I’d assume it means increasing cognitive abilities over the long haul though via the use of nootropics, CBT etc.

Bump - can any knowledgable person please explain?

17 days later and you have still not looked it up on Google. Longecity is not Reddit, it's not a place where immature, hypersocial liberals go and ask for an explanation for something they obviously already understand, only so they can be upvoted for asking a pointless and timewasting question.

Congrats! You found out that you couldn’t read!
At least you learned something about yourself. I hope I got myself such an opportunity but alas you’re the lucky one.
