A common infection may reach the eye, trigger inflammation, and worsen memory loss linked to Alzheimer’s disease.

“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 discovered how the human brain uses two different groups of neurons to store ...

October 19, 2011 — New studies in animal models show not only that stimulating targeted regions of the brain improves spatial memory but also that neurogenesis explains, at least in part, this ...

We often think of memory as stable—a mental archive that stores experiences in neat, retrievable files. But what if those files quietly shift positions, even when the original experience hasn’t ...

A study by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine may change the way we understand memory. Until now, memories have been explained by the activity of neurons that respond to learning events and ...
