For more than a century, the story of the brain has been told as a tale of neurons, with every thought and memory traced to their electrical chatter. That narrative is now being rewritten as evidence ...

Neuroscientists say they have found a new function for the SYNGAP1 gene, a DNA sequence that controls memory and learning in mammals, including mice and humans. Johns Hopkins Medicine neuroscientists ...

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 ...

“Our long-term goal is to empower people with the ability to tune their own brains for learning,” said Poh. “By understanding ...

Researchers at Google have developed a new AI paradigm aimed at solving one of the biggest limitations in today’s large language models: their inability to learn or update their knowledge after ...

The delivery of chemical messenger (neurotransmitter) receptors to the junctions between nerve cells (synapses) is crucial to cognitive processes such as memory. One way of understanding the function ...
