What if the difference between losing your memories and keeping them sharp for decades came down to one overlooked protein?
Researchers at Rutgers University believe they may have found exactly that—a molecular “master key” called cypin that could redefine how we approach brain health, learning, and recovery after injury.
For more than two decades, neuroscientist Bonnie Firestein has been obsessed with this underappreciated protein. Her team’s latest findings reveal that cypin isn’t just a passive player in the brain—it’s an active architect, organizing and protecting the molecular machinery that keeps neurons talking to each other.
