Most people have experienced the eerie familiarity of deja vu, and now the first brain scans of this phenomenon have revealed why--it's their brain checking memories. Deja vu was thought to be caused by the brain making false memories, but research by Akira O'Connor at the University of St Andrews, UK, and his team suggests this isn't the case. How deja vu works has long been a mystery partly because its fleeting, unpredictable nature makes it difficult to study. To get around this, O'Connor's team developed a way to trigger the sensation of deja vu in the lab.
