Abstract

Across the world, people are living longer. This phenomenon is creating a demographic shift: by 2050, the number of people aged 60 and older is expected to double and the number of people older than 80 is expected to triple [1] . A growing elderly population also means an increase in age-related health concerns. In particular, with age comes normal memory decline as well as an increased risk of Alzheimer’s and other dementias. All this means that now more than ever the world needs interventions to support memory. From developing memory protheses to improving memory consolidation during sleep, neurostimulation is one particularly promising type of intervention for enhancing memory.
利用脑刺激增强记忆力
在世界各地,人们的寿命越来越长。这一现象正在造成人口结构的转变:到 2050 年,60 岁及以上的人口预计将翻一番,80 岁以上的人口预计将增加两倍[1]。老年人口的增长也意味着与年龄相关的健康问题的增加。特别是,随着年龄的增长,记忆力会正常衰退,患老年痴呆症和其他痴呆症的风险也会增加。所有这些都意味着,现在世界比以往任何时候都更需要支持记忆的干预措施。从开发记忆保护器到改善睡眠中的记忆巩固,神经刺激是一种特别有前景的增强记忆干预方法。
