The persistence of drug memories accounts for the high risk of drug relapse, which is a major challenge in the treatment of substance use disorders. However, the neurobiological underpinnings, ...

We investigated the interaction of episodic memory processes with the short-term dynamics of recency effects. This work takes inspiration from a seminal experimental work involving an odor-in-context ...

Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have discovered a new pathway to forming long-term memories in the brain. Their work suggests that long-term memory can form ...

Using optogenetics techniques, scientists from Max Planck Florida Institute of Neuroscience identified a new pathway for forming long-term memories in the brain. Their findings suggest that long-term ...

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

Scientists have uncovered a stepwise system that guides how the brain sorts and stabilizes lasting memories. By tracking brain activity during virtual reality learning tasks, researchers identified ...

Multitasking usually lowers productivity because most people are “task switching,” which creates a mental “switch cost” that slows processing and reduces accuracy. Switching between tasks strains ...
