Did you know that your speed — in a simple task of quickly pressing a button every time you see a yellow square — is faster when you are exhaling or pausing then when you are inhaling? Dr. Erika Yamazaki figured this out, did all the work, and published on it this week www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

A meta-analysis suggests that TMS targeting the hippocampal network selectively improves episodic memory
Meta-analysis indicates that network-targeted non-invasive brain stimulation consistently enhances memory function supported by the hippocampal network, thus providing robust evidence that specific me...
