Still, the National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke was sufficiently intrigued to invite Matinyan and the Polenov's director, Veniamin U. Ugryumov, to the U.S. in 1976. American researchers are trying to duplicate the rat experiment, but Dr. Murray Goldstein, NlNCDS's deputy director, says that preliminary results are disappointing.
