Stimulating the sleeping brain may ease suffering from memory loss, stroke or mental health problems
In a show of solidarity, UPenn faculty professors made a visit to Israel in the aftermath of president Liz Magill's resignation following her disastrous congress hearing on campus anti-Semitism.
Researchers developed a novel “closed-loop” system that delivered electrical pulses in a brain region to synchronize brain activity recorded from another region in the brain to improve memory.
