ENHANCED THOUGHTS. "For nearly all of human history, only the five natural senses were known to serve as a way into the brain, and language and gesture as the channels out. Now researchers are breaching those boundaries of the mind, moving information in and out and across space and time, manipulating it and potentially enhancing it." http://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/why-brain-brain-communication-no-longer-unthinkable-180954948/ View in LinkedIn

UNLIMITED. “Hack your brain to remember almost anything.” https://lnkd.in/dE2v5a4 View in LinkedIn

TED TALK. “A Memory Without Limits: Prof. Giuliana Mazzoni at TEDxHull.” https://lnkd.in/dKUjM2s View in LinkedIn

FUNCTION OF MEMORY. “Memory is the glue that binds our mental lives. Without it, we’d be prisoners of the present, unable to use the lessons of the past to change our future.” https://lnkd.in/dU7QXHe View in LinkedIn

EXPANDED PROSTHESIS. “Over the past few decades, we as a society have become comfortable with medical devices being implanted in various parts of our bodies, such as pacemakers for the heart, artificial hips and prosthetic limbs. But now this idea of prosthetic supplementation has reached the brain.” https://lnkd.in/driwVWw View in LinkedIn

ELECTRONIC MEMORY IMPLANT. “This audacious idea is based on silicon chips that mimic the signal processing involved in memory retrieval in the brain. Rat and monkey implants suggest that the chips can process signals like actual neurons and retrieve long-term memories from the hippocampus.” (Theodore Berger). https://lnkd.in/dexYqgY View in LinkedIn

MEMORY IMPLANTS. "Ultimately, Berger wants to restore the ability to create long-term memories by implanting chips like these in the brain.” https://lnkd.in/dexYqgY View in LinkedIn

DESIGNER MIDS. “We’re likely to gain the ability to improve human memory, to speed the rate at which people can learn things, even to save memories offline and relive them.” https://lnkd.in/eFd9Fdg View in LinkedIn
