Memory loss may not simply be a symptom of getting older. New research from Virginia Tech shows that it's tied to specific molecular changes in the brain and that adjusting those processes can improve ...

A new brain imaging study reveals that remembering facts and recalling life events activate nearly identical brain networks. Researchers expected clear differences but instead found strong overlap ...

A new study into how different parts of memory work in the brain has shown that the same brain areas are involved in retrieving different types of information, according to researchers from the School ...

Memory representations are fundamental to human cognition, yet their integrity can be compromised with advancing age. Recent research has elucidated complex molecular and circuit-level mechanisms ...

The UCLA Brain Research Institute hosted the annual Southern California Learning and Memory Symposium on March 3. Participants and attendees gathered in the Neuroscience Research Building for a day of ...

Stress is the brain’s natural response to fear, but it often disrupts memory in the process, potentially impacting the possibility of memory loss. When preparing for a big presentation or taking a ...
