Brain research and memory

The New York Times reports that scientists in Brooklyn, NY are experimenting with a drug that will have the ability to erase specific memories such as traumas and chronic fears.

For an accessible, yet very informative, introduction to the circuitry of the brain and how memory and fear work, THE HIDDEN FACE OF FEAR studies the traumatic impact of 9/ll on New Yorkers featuring interviews with leading researchers, including neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux and Nobel Prize-winning neurobiologist Eric R. Kandel.
