Every day, the brain takes in far more experiences than it will ever store. Most dissolve within hours. A few persist for ...

A team of neuroscientists has restored lost memory function in cognitively impaired mice by flipping a molecular switch ...

Cedars-Sinai researchers created “young” immune cells from human stem cells that reversed cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s symptoms in mice. The treated animals showed better memory and healthier ...

A newly identified brain protein may play a major role in how the body ages. Researchers discovered that declining levels of ...

Researchers discover a neural switch in the medial septum that commands the brain to retrieve recent memories, shedding light ...

Age-related memory decline and neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are often thought of as irreversible. But the brain is not static; neurons continually adjust the strength of their ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them-an effect called infantile amnesia. A type of brain immune cell called microglia might control this type of ...

A team led by the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), has identified a brain circuit ...
