• Resumen

  • Sleeping minds: prepare to be hacked. For the first time, conscious memories have been implanted into the minds of mice while they sleep. The same technique could one day be used to alter memories in people who have undergone traumatic events. Here, Hamzelou discusses Karim Benchenane and his colleagues' research wherein they implant memories into sleeping mice.
