Transgenerational Inheritance of complex learning abilities in the mammalian brain

2026-06-05

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Whether complex cognitive abilities can be inherited through non-genetic mechanisms in mammals remains unclear. Here, we show that training rodents in a demanding rule-learning task produces an enhancement of learning ability in offspring: naïve offspring across three generations (F1–F3) learned diverse abstract discrimination tasks faster than controls. This effect persisted after cr...
