A team of researchers has shown that noninvasive electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve through the ear can reverse memory deficits caused by acute stress in mice, pinpointing a specific protein ...

Social memory-the ability to recognize familiar individuals and distinguish them from strangers-is fundamental to social cognition. Deficits in social memory are hallmarks of multiple neuropsychiatric ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

Schematic model showing how memory is consolidated in the prefrontal cortex and how circuitry through the amygdala shifts as hippocampal engram cells become silent and cortical engrams become active.

A computational model explains how place cells in the hippocampus can be recruited to form any kind of episodic memory, even when there's no spatial component. Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists discovered cells within the brain’s hippocampus that store memories of specific locations. These cells also play an important role in storing ...
