Scientists discover a new pathway to long-term memory formation in the brain that can bypass the formation of short-term memory. Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have ...

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

A new study has suggested that two processes that are usually thought of as harmful: DNA damage and inflammation, may actually be processes that are required whenever we form long-term memories. Brain ...

One of the most powerful assets of the brain is that it can store information as memories, allowing us to learn from our mistakes. However, some memories remain vivid while others become forgotten.

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 ...

Manipulating important non-neuronal brain cells called astrocytes using light prevented fear memories from being retained long-term, according to new research. The findings add to growing evidence ...

An international collaborative research team has discovered that G-quadraplex DNA (G4-DNA) accumulates in neurons and dynamically controls the activation and repression of genes underlying long-term ...

Researchers found that the psychedelic compound DOI strengthens connections between the claustrum and anterior cingulate ...

Do you remember what you did last Tuesday before breakfast? Probably not. Memory is a precious resource. And long-term memory is even more precious. We remember a fair amount of details of our ...
