(The article had no image so I use an image that was on the page.)
A group of scientists tested 53 volunteers and found the differences of the volunteers ability to distinguish real or imagined memories. They found that a certain area of the brain called the paracingulate sulcus(PCS) which is a direct link to what distinguishes the difference. It's one of the last regions of the brain which is developed before birth. They found that the larger it is the better at distinguishing real from fake. Finding this could help scientists better understand schizophrenia.
By knowing this they could find out the size of the PCS of some people who have schizophrenia. Which could help advance the information about people with schizophrenia. Which could help determine how this affect people with schizophrenia. Which could help several people like 24 million people worldwide.
