7. False Memories Implanted in Mice:
A team of researchers by using optical fibers was able to manipulate mice into believing that caring area was dangerous for them by implanting false bad memories. Humans have similar biology to mice. When the scientist can figure out how they can manipulate the neurons on human, we could have operated for removing traumatic memories and pleasant implant one. This could also help in fixing illness like amnesia and schizophrenia.
