Their findings were provocative: A low dose of THC, they reported, "reversed the age-related decline in cognitive performance of mice aged 12 and 18 months." They traced this change to a shift in gene expression — the way that our DNA codes are transcribed and translated into proteins and other molecules. According to the study, "the expression profiles of THC-treated mice aged 12 months closely resembled those of THC-free animals aged 2 months," as if the older mice's brains were getting younger.

Weed made you smarter, if you are really old anyway. :) Pretty sure otherwise it doesn't.
