Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...
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 ...
The average human brain weighs about 3 pounds and contains 80 to 100 billion neurons, which are the cells that store information. But how do these cells store information? How do we retrieve that ...
The field of systems neuroscience increasingly seeks to understand how distributed neural populations interact to support complex cognitive functions such ...
The medial septum is far more than a mere metronome responsible for setting the pace of the hippocampal theta rhythm. It resembles more of a maestro, conducting a symphony of oscillations spanning a ...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers investigated whether post-encoding ripples improve emotional memory through amygdala-hippocampal memory restoration or ...
Memory is a continually unfolding process. Initial details of an experience take shape in memory; the brain’s representation of that information then changes over time. With subsequent reactivations, ...
