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 ...

New research provides evidence that electric fields shared among neurons via 'ephaptic coupling' provide the coordination necessary to assemble the multi-region neural ensembles ('engrams') that ...

A collaboration between SISSA's Physics and Neuroscience groups has taken a step forward in understanding how memories are ...

Compelling new research, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is suggesting neuronal activity in the hippocampus prior to the delivery of new information can ...

A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...

On theoretical grounds, the architecture of CA3 circuits seems to be well adapted for the rapid storage and retrieval of associative memories. This is thought to require plastic changes in the ...

Influential models of visual working memory treat each item to be stored as an independent unit and assume that there are no interactions between items. However, real-world displays have structure ...

Memory loss and "brain fog" may be long-term side effects of COVID-19, according to researchers. In a recent study published last week in the journal JAMA Network Open, Mt. Sinai Health System experts ...

Long-term COVID-19 side effects could include memory loss and other cognitive dysfunctions commonly labeled as "brain fog," according to a study released that examined 740 patients in the Mount Sinai ...

The “circuit” metaphor of the brain is as indisputable as it is familiar: Neurons forge direct physical connections to create functional networks, for instance to store memories or produce thoughts.
