To dig deeper, the researchers developed a method for measuring activation patterns in astrocytes across a whole brain of a ...

When we form a memory, brain cells need to deliver supplies to strengthen specific neural connections. A new study from MPFI ...

Kidney cells can make memories too. At least, in a molecular sense. Neurons have historically been the cell most associated with memory. But far outside the brain, kidney cells can also store ...

It turns out your brain might not be the only part of your body that remembers. Scientists at NYU have found that cells outside the brain—like those from your kidneys—can actually "learn" and form ...

We tend to think of memory as exclusively the brain’s domain, but new research suggests that this view may be far too narrow.

Editor’s Note: This is part of a series called Inside the Lab, which gives audiences a first-hand look at the research laboratories at the University of Chicago and the scholars who are tackling some ...

Learning comes from all our senses. Whether it is judging the situation, or object, we judge it according to our 5 senses.

A recent brain-scan study sheds light on how people's brains divide continuous experiences into meaningful segments, like scenes in a movie. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

With all the hype around brain-computer interfaces, you might think neuroscientists already have a pretty good idea of how memory works in the brain. After all, if you are going to upload your memory ...

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 ...
