HRL and McGill Scientists Confirm Transcranial Stimulation Effects and Determine a Key Mechanism
Study shows transcranial learning effect not dependent on neuron firing rates. HRL Laboratories, LLC, researchers have determined how non-invasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) could increase performance of associative learning.
HRL receives DARPA Award to “STAMP” learning into the brain
The Biological Technologies Office (BTO) of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has awarded HRL Laboratories, LLC, funding for a two-year project in the RAM Replay program to develop a man-portable system to boost learning during waking and memory consolidation during sleep, thereby increasing a person’s ability to quickly integrate and accurately recall information.
