Neurofeedback: Training the brain from within.

Neurofeedback training can help people identify strategies to successfully drive hippocampal activity, potentially promoting stronger encoding beyond the training session.

• Why it matters: The hippocampus is linked to encoding and reconstructing experiences, but people need ways to control their own hippocampal activity to improve learning outcomes.
• What they did: The work describes neurofeedback training aimed at enabling individuals to recognize strategies that modulate their hippocampal activity during training.
• The result: Successful hippocampal control during neurofeedback is linked to stronger encoding beyond the session, suggesting longer-lasting effects on experience encoding.
