A team of UChicago psychology researchers used fMRI scans to learn why certain moments carry such lasting power ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers investigated whether post-encoding ripples improve emotional memory through amygdala-hippocampal memory restoration or ...

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 ...

New research provides evidence that electric fields shared among neurons via 'ephaptic coupling' provide the coordination necessary to assemble the multi-region neural ensembles ('engrams') that ...

In the brains of adult mice, communication through astrocyte networks controls the formation of spatial memories and plasticity in the hippocampus, a new study led by scientists at the Institute of ...

A recent study conducted by Hospital del Mar in Barcelona unveiled a fascinating detail: the way neurons organize themselves ...

Babies are capable of encoding memories even though they can't seem to retrieve them as adults, according to a new study. - Oscar Wong/Moment RF/Getty Images Do you ever wonder what it was like to be ...

Scientists have identified key genes involved in brain waves that are pivotal for encoding memories. The findings could eventually be used to develop novel therapies for people with memory loss ...

Memory loss and "brain fog" may be long-term side effects of COVID-19, according to researchers. In a recent study published last week in the journal JAMA Network Open, Mt. Sinai Health System experts ...

The “circuit” metaphor of the brain is as indisputable as it is familiar: Neurons forge direct physical connections to create functional networks, for instance to store memories or produce thoughts.
