Maybe you have more info on this than I do, but from college-level neuroscience classes I have been informed the opposite is true. In fact, there is some thought that new synaptic connections cease to be made at a relatively young age. Learning that takes place afterward is merely from adjustments in synaptic strength. In some sense, the brain "hardens" with age just like a retina does.
