A study published in Behaviour Research and Therapy has demonstrated that targeting a specific part of the brain with magnetic stimulation can disrupt the consolidation of traumatic memories.
The research team was particularly interested in the role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) in consolidating threat memories.
By disrupting the activity of this brain region within the early consolidation period, the researchers were able to prevent the persistence of conditioned threat responses.
