Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation enhances semantic memory by modulating brain morphology, neurochemistry and neural dynamics.
Nature communications·February 16, 2026·PMID 41698912
Why it mattersIt provides the first evidence that non-invasive ultrasound can modulate deep temporal lobe structures to enhance semantic memory, with convergent neurochemical, functional, and structural changes. This opens avenues for neuromodulation in memory disorders and cognitive optimization.
