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 ...

Richard Addante, who has spent more than a decade researching episodic memory—the cognitive process that involves processing and retrieving long-term memory—has identified a new kind of human memory ...

For almost a century, psychologists and neuroscientists have been trying to understand how humans memorize different types of information, ranging from knowledge or facts to the recollection of ...

New study by Prof. Benny Hochner from the Alexander Silberman Institute of Life Sciences at The Hebrew University and Prof. Jeff Lichtman from Harvard University has unveiled the intricate neural ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature, researchers found that the recruitment of neurons to memory circuits is preceded by a cascade of molecular events induced during learning, which ...

Researchers have investigated how sleep affects memory. They found a link between breathing and the emergence of certain brain activity patterns in sleep that are associated with the reactivation of ...

Episodic memory is a type of long-term memory. It helps you remember the time, place, and details surrounding a specific event or experience in your life. For example, remembering what you had for ...
