Researchers identify "meal memory" neurons in laboratory rats that could explain why forgetting lunch leads to overeating. Scientists have discovered a specific group of brain cells that create ...

The human brain must be able to link memory content to the circumstances in which it occurs. Researchers in Bonn have now discovered how the human brain uses two different groups of neurons to store ...

A new study shows that the human brain stores what we remember and the context in which it happens using different neurons.

We often think of memories like the contents of a museum: static exhibits that we view to understand the present and prepare ...

When a new memory forms the brain undergoes physical and functional changes known collectively as a “memory trace.” This memory trace represents the specific patterns of neuronal activity and ...

“If we go back to the early 1900s, this is when the idea was first proposed that memories are physically stored in some location within the brain,” says Michael R. Williamson, a researcher at the ...

The human brain must be able to link memory content to the circumstances in which it occurs. Researchers in Bonn have now ...

As far back as Plato and Aristotle, people believed that our memories had to be physical somethings that were stored somewhere in the brain. But only in modern times have we learned much about what ...

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

Singapore has one of the highest life expectancies in the world, yet many individuals spend almost a decade in poor health ...

Researchers say study findings may lead to a more promising future for cell therapy targeting stroke and other neurological disorders.
