Spark of Genius? Awakening a Better Brain
Δημοσιεύτηκε στις 19 Οκτ 2015
How
far would you go to improve your focus, memory, or even learning
ability? Would you be willing to strap on headgear that delivers
electrical shocks to targeted areas of your brain? You may soon have
that option. It’s called trans-cranial direct current stimulation, and
it’s currently being tested on soldiers and used by gamers, students,
and others looking for a cognitive edge. But questions linger: does it
work? What are potential long-term effects? And how should it be
regulated?
The working memory test sequence is taken from the BBC Earth production, Extraordinary Animals
