Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

Kanazawa University, have captured real-time images showing how a key brain enzyme organizes itself to help memory formation.

Researchers have identified a brain protein whose absence leads to memory loss and Alzheimer’s-like damage in mice.

Scientists have long suspected that hormones quietly tune how the brain learns, but the idea of a single, hidden “switch” has usually been more metaphor than map. What is emerging from decades of ...

A new protein sensor lets researchers see incoming brain signals, revealing how neurons process information tied to memory ...

Memory doesn’t live only in the brain. Scientists are uncovering signs that cells throughout the body can remember, too. These findings are starting to challenge old ideas about how and where memory ...

Research in cognitive science suggests that colour quietly shapes how we learn, remember, and focus. Studies show coloured ...

Discover research on memorization techniques for studying. Learn how repetition learning theory and spaced repetition boost ...

LA JOLLA, CA – Using cutting-edge genetic tools, 3D electron microscopy, and artificial intelligence, Scripps Research scientists and colleagues have uncovered key structural hallmarks of long-term ...

Scientists uncovered a surprising four-layer structure hidden inside the hippocampal CA1 region, one of the brain’s major centers for memory, navigation, and emotion. Using advanced RNA imaging ...

In his new book, neuroscientist Steve Ramirez delves in the fast-growing field of memory manipulation, which is being explored as a treatment for depression and other mental health conditions. Reading ...
