“Just a few months ago, we wrote about how UC Berkeley researchers have been able to use functional MRI (fMRI) machines to extract your dreams from inside your brain. A joint American and Japanese team has since discovered that this technique works both ways: it’s possible to use an fMRI machine to generate specific patterns inside your brain that can be used to teach you new things.”

AWESOME
