Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have found a way to insert false memories into the brains of mice
In the experiment, researchers implanted memories that caused the mice to fear an event that didn't actually happen. The MIT researchers call the process “incepting," in a nod to the recent film, Inception, though it has nothing to do with dreams.
The experiment consisted of two zones for the mice to explore. A mouse was taken to "Area B," where the floor delivered small electric shocks. Scientists then modified the memory so that the shocks would be associated with "Area A" through a memory modification process called optogenetics (more on that gene-modifying process here).
