Researchers in Boston University worked on two brain regions in particular: the medial frontal cortex and the lateral prefrontal cortex increasing
Brain to sync up
Mental boost
Faster recovering from mistakes
The method call high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation (HD-tACS) is to gently zap the brain using electrodes
The research was conducted on 30 volunteers carrying out a time estimation learning task, pressing a button when they thought 1.7 seconds had elapsed, and getting feedback on whether they'd missed the mark.
In the long term this study have the potential to treat anxiety, Parkinson's, autism, schizophrenia, ADHD, and Alzheimer's
