The process of “epigenetic memory” in nerve cells plays a key role in learning ability, memory function, and healthy brain ...

A longevity-linked metabolite restored key memory processes in Alzheimer’s models, highlighting aging biology as a promising therapeutic target. Singapore ranks among the countries with the longest ...

The activity of Snhg11, a gene found in the 'dark matter' of the genome, is critical for the function and formation of neurons in the hippocampus, specifically in an area critical for learning and ...

For decades, scientists have focused on the brain as the primary location for memory storage and processing. However, recent groundbreaking research from is challenging this long-standing assumption, ...

Neuron showing SynGAP (green) binding to PSD-95 at synapses. Johns Hopkins Medicine neuroscientists say they have found a new function for the SYNGAP1 gene, a DNA sequence that controls memory and ...

Memories can form outside of the brain, according to new research. Non-brain cells exposed to chemical pulses similar to the ones that brain cells are exposed to when presented with new information ...

Certain cognitive skills help improve memory naturally. Strengthening focus, logic, language, and emotional control can ...

These distinct tests enabled the scientists to observe specific hippocampal activity during learning and then memory replay and consolidation in sleep. Because of the way our pupils change in response ...
