o explain, when the human brain receives sensory input (sight, smell, sound=
, etc.), it encodes a memory as an electrical signal which travels through =
multiple regions of the hippocampus. The signal is re-encoded in each regio=
n and is stored for the long term at the end of its journey.
Engineers at the University of Southern California and researchers at the W=
ake Forest Baptist Medical Center recently developed a brain implant to fig=
ht long term memory loss.
The prosthesis developed at USC is comprised of an array of electrodes impl=
anted in the brain. Having been tested on animals and more recently on huma=
ns, the device has been proven to accurately mimic how a memory is encoded.
With these results, the implant may be used to replace the damaged region o=
f the hippocampus to encode a memories.
In human testing, individuals suffering from chronic seizures received the =
implant to help researchers see how accurately it could predict how their m=
emories would be encoded.
Researchers from Wake Forest Baptist read the electrical signals created du=
ring memory formation at two regions of the subject=C3=A2=E2=82=AC=E2=84=A2=
s hippocampi. This information was sent to a team at USC, who constructed a=
research model able to read how the signals generated in the first region =
of the hippocampus are translated by the second.
In over one hundred trials conducted with nine patients, the algorithm used=
by the implant predicted how the signals would be translated with about 90=
percent accuracy.
