Researchers identify the Munc13-1 protein as a crucial molecular pathway for working memory, linking calcium signaling to synaptic strengthening.

Researchers identified in mice a microbiome–gut–brain pathway in which age-associated changes in gut microbes increase medium-chain fatty acids that impair vagal sensory signaling and hippocampal ...

As organisms grow older, changes in the bacteria living inside the digestive system can directly cause the memory loss ...

Memory is not a recording device. It doesn't play back events like a video camera would. Instead, it's a remarkably active, ...

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 ...

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 ...

We become forgetful as we age. This is often seen as a universal truth, but in fact it is far from universal: some people remain incredibly sharp at 100 years old, while others experience memory loss ...
