Growth hormone, known for regulating height and physical development, has been found to be deeply involved in the brain's ...

Complex protein interactions at synapses are essential for memory formation in our brains, but the mechanisms behind these processes remain poorly understood. Now, researchers from Japan have ...

A Ludwig Cancer Research study has identified a metabolic switch in the immune system's T cells that is essential to the generation of memory T cells - which confer lasting immunity to previously ...

Newly decoded brain circuits make memories more stable as part of learning, according to a new study led by NYU Langone Health researchers. Published online in Science on Oct. 30, the study shows that ...

Researchers have discovered a new pathway to forming long-term memories in the brain. Their work suggests that long-term memory can form independently of short-term memory, a finding that opens ...

When we form a memory, brain cells need to deliver supplies to strengthen specific neural connections. A new study from MPFI and Weill Cornell Medicine has revealed how two cellular switches, Rab4 and ...

When a new memory forms the brain undergoes physical and functional changes known collectively as a “memory trace.” This memory trace represents the specific patterns of neuronal activity and ...

Scientists have identified a previously unseen layered organization inside one of the brain’s most important memory hubs.

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For ...
