摘要

Improved medical care has significantly increased life expectancies, yet has also produced a growing population at risk for cognitive impairment, especially memory and learning deficits. Strategies to repair lost function traditionally resort to neurotechnology, but have been unsuccessful for cognitive functions like memory due to the considerably more complex physiology of brain tissue. Improved understanding of memory and learning is now stimulating interest in devices that can diagnose or repair impaired function; their design, however, will need to address how global mechanisms that elicit memory or learning neural activity are affected. Extensive research shows that the brain's global, executive mechanisms evoke dynamic oscillating activity that coordinates information transfer with memory circuits through synchronized oscillation, complicating the design of neurotechnologies that can selectively intervene. This paper explores the theoretical possibility for selective intervention in memory/learning circuits on the presupposition that synchronization is mediated through weakly coupled oscillation, the most widely acknowledged model for cognitive information transfer. Based on this model, the paper shows that selective synchronization with a therapeutic device is possible; however, a limited impact on executive circuits is also likely. Additionally, the paper reveals several previously unknown regulatory, dynamical features, including coupling strength modulation that sustains information transfer at lower coupling levels and noise mediated phase broadening that enhances flexibility in oscillatory control.
