Light against depression
In our society, the problems of depression and anxiety are becoming more widespread. The path to healing is long in general, but in an article recently published in the journal Nature we have known a new and interesting way to cure depressions. It's about, to put it simply, activating with rays of light brain neurons with positive memories.
Tests on mice have yielded spectacular results: in almost all cases, neurons have been activated and depression eliminated by introducing light rays into the exact position of the brain of mice that have suffered an intentional depression.
The problem is that putting the light with a fiber in the head is very aggressive. However, knowing that the outcome can be satisfactory, the next challenge will be to find the right technological pathways for light to enter the mind in a simple way.
