Cognitive enhancement refers to the practice of improving cognitive functioning through various methods, such as through the use of drugs, supplements, or brain-training exercises. This research area explores ways to enhance memory, attention, creativity, and other cognitive abilities in healthy individuals or those with cognitive impairments. Some common methods of cognitive enhancement include the use of prescription medications like Adderall or Ritalin, as well as the use of natural supplements like omega-3 fatty acids or caffeine. Researchers in this field aim to better understand the mechanisms underlying cognitive enhancement and to develop safe and effective interventions to improve cognitive functioning.
