Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have discovered a new pathway to forming long-term memories in the brain. Their work, published in Nature Neuroscience, suggests that ...

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

New research has uncovered how a protein strongly linked to Alzheimer's disease plays a critical role in forming long-lasting memories—opening up new directions for future dementia treatments.

Walking into a room and forgetting why you've done so is a rather common experience, and there's a surprising amount of ...

Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have discovered a new pathway to forming long-term memories in the brain. Their work suggests that long-term memory can form ...

Scientists have uncovered a stepwise system that guides how the brain sorts and stabilizes lasting memories. By tracking brain activity during virtual reality learning tasks, researchers identified ...

Memory failures often feel like personal lapses, but new research suggests the problem may be rooted in hidden architecture inside the brain’s core learning hub. Scientists have uncovered previously ...

MIT's DAAAM framework gives robots long-term spatial memory by attaching language descriptions to 3D maps. Ask "where's my wallet?" and it searches its memory.

During navigation, the brain builds representations of self-motion and of environmental information for future action. The classic view suggests that these representations consolidate and eventually ...

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)—even mild concussions—may trigger a chain reaction in the brain that disrupts neuronal communication, long-term memory and cognition, according to University of ...
