Scientists have learned to “erase” memories of drug addiction.

This discovery should help in the treatment of dependent people. Scientists took stem cells from the tissues of drug addicts, which can reach the brain and influence it so that it “forgets” about the sensations that a person experienced when taking drugs. After that, new memory cells are formed in the brain that do not carry information about addiction. After the job is done, the stem cells either migrate to another damaged site or die and leave the body. In theory, this method can help and get rid of nicotine addiction.
