艾米 · 弥尔顿: 我们能否编辑记忆？

我们能否编辑记忆？

创伤性事件和创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）会重启你的大脑——尤其是你的记忆——还会在受到刺激时产生有害的情绪反应。我们能否在不消除记忆的情况下，排除这些触发因素呢？神经内科学家艾米 · 弥尔顿（Amy Milton）带来了惊人的编辑记忆临床研究，旨在化解回忆痛苦经历造成的伤害，并为改善心理健康指出了更好的方向。

Trauma can distort how memory works, leaving emotional triggers untethered from time or place. Research shows that nearly 90 percent of people experience traumatic events, and up to half of sexual violence survivors develop PTSD. New science reveals that memories, once thought permanent, can be altered under specific conditions. By targeting emotional memory without erasing factual recollection, emerging treatments may help people reclaim their lives from the grip of trauma.
