Neuroscientists have already begun trialling implants that boost memory loss, and in the future they believe these implants could be used to replicate memories in the brains of others.

Research teams from the University of Southern California and University of Pennsylvania have been testing the technology on epilepsy patients.

These patients already have electrodes implanted in their brains, which means the experts didn’t need to insert the prostheses in new patients through risky brain surgery. (Read more from “Could We Soon IMPLANT Memories into Other People?” HERE)
