Researchers are testing a new approach to repair early memory loss by protecting brain connections affected in Alzheimer’s ...

Stressful study sessions help us pass exams, but curiosity promotes long-term understanding and information retention. In A ...

For decades, dopamine has been celebrated in neuroscience as the quintessential "reward molecule"—a chemical herald of pleasure, motivation, and reinforcement. In popular understanding, higher ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...

New research on the hippocampus, a brain area essential for memory, suggests that new rules of synaptic plasticity best explain how brain activity continually reshapes the way memories are recorded in ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers have developed a ...
