“SuperAgers have more immature neurons and neuroblasts in the hippocampus, which is an indication of stronger neurogenesis ...

While neurogenesis—the growth of new brain cells—typically slows with age, superagers produce new neurons in the hippocampus at twice the rate of healthy older adults. In contrast, individuals with ...

For the first time, a study in rats teases apart the role of the hippocampus in two functions of memory—one that remembers associations between time, place and what one did, and another that allows ...

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 ...

According to evidence from a preclinical study published in Nature, the hippocampus, the brain's memory center, may also reorganize memories to anticipate future outcomes. The study, conducted by ...

A new study has revealed that neural inhibition and balanced neural activity in a specific area of the brain is required for recognition memory. The findings could help provide better understanding of ...

New research on the hippocampus, a brain area essential for memory, suggests that new rules of synaptic plasticity best explain how brain activity continually reshapes the way memories are recorded in ...

We’re aware that a good night’s sleep helps to restore energy, but a new study in rats and mice, carried by scientists at Cornell University, has found that sleep also resets another vital function, ...
