B
A study in September has added excitement in the brain science area. In the study, volunteers had electrical stimulation(电刺激) in their brains. The study found their memory(记忆) and problem-solving abilities got better for at least a month. The stimulation was painless and could lead to future treatments(治疗) for memory. It could even help students with their future exams.
Volunteers in the study did better in both remembering words and working out memory-based problems. In the test, they wore a cap and it was connected to electrical currents(电流). Wearing the cap for twenty minutes a day was enough to help people remember words better. The volunteers could retell more words a month later.
Working memory is connected to problem-solving and decision-making abilities. Low frequency(频率) stimulation of the brain can help boost working memory. For example, volunteers also did better in taking notes after the stimulation.
The brain training industries are worth millions of dollars. Players are interested in improving their abilities by doing memory exercises. The future is wide open if it is tested to be successful and safe in treatments.
