Memory implantation is a happening thing

This news is about a fortnight old. I apologise -- I've been busy with stuffs. Via io9:

In a study published in the latest issue of Science, a team of researchers led by MIT neuroscientist and Nobel Laureate Susumu Tonegawa demonstrates its ability to isolate and activate engrams in a mouse's memory-rich hippocampus. The researchers go on to implant false memories in the mouse's mind, causing it to recall experiences that have never actually occurred. (Source)

The mice soon began receiving tiny packages from Kirsten Dunst and are currently converging on Montauk.
