Brain Stimulation Restores Memory During Lapses, Research Shows
From: Medical Design Technology - 04/24/2017

A team of neuroscientists at the University of Pennsylvania has shown for the
first time that electrical stimulation delivered when memory is predicted to
fail can improve memory function in the human brain. That same stimulation
generally becomes disruptive when electrical pulses arrive during periods of
effective memory function.

This work is an important step toward the long-term goal of Restoring Active
Memory, a four-year Department of Defense project aimed at developing
next-generation technologies that improve memory function in people who
suffer from memory loss.
