Hongi Ngo

Hongi Ngo, a psychology lecturer at the University of Essex, developed a groundbreaking technique called closed-loop auditory stimulation (CLAS) designed to manipulate sleep oscillations. He explains how CLAS can enhance memory consolidation by timing auditory bursts to brain rhythms. The discussion covers its potential in boosting immune function and reducing epilepsy symptoms. Ngo also explores the synergy between CLAS and targeted memory reactivation, along with exciting future applications like transcranial magnetic stimulation to further unlock the mysteries of sleep and memory.
