Our episodic memory – the ability to recall past events and experiences – is known to decline as we age. Exactly how and why ...

Researchers have found that a natural aging-related molecule can repair key memory processes affected by Alzheimer’s disease.

Working memory is a critical cognitive system that temporarily maintains and manipulates information for complex tasks such as reasoning, learning, and decision-making. It functions as an interface ...

Recognition memory research encompasses a diverse range of models and decision processes that characterise how individuals differentiate between previously encountered stimuli and novel items. At the ...

A team of scientists has unveiled how the hippocampus orchestrates multiple memory processes, including encoding new information, forming memories, and retrieving them. A team of scientists from the ...

Alzheimer’s memory loss may be linked to disrupted brain activity during rest, when recent experiences are usually replayed ...

A team of scientists from the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has ...

Scientists from Boston University, Queensland University of Technology, and the University of Toronto are advancing a shared idea about how the mind works. They argue that the same brain systems used ...

Whether on patrol or in the lab, we all have a routine similar to this one. While each of our routines may vary slightly (get kids ready for school, read paper, watch news, etc.), there are ...

There are several factors that can influence an individual’s memory—and sleep habits are crucial. Beyond influencing our ability to fight disease and develop immunity, proper sleep is also essential ...

Blood pressure medications have long been prescribed primarily for cardiovascular health, but emerging evidence suggests certain classes of these drugs may offer remarkable cognitive benefits for ...

A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...
