Neuropeptide Substance P may help mediate social memory in the CA2 area of the hippocampus, researchers report.
Study documents how CaMKII acts during synaptic plasticity, providing clues about the molecular signals that regulate memory formation.
Researchers use optogenetics to tweak neural circuitry and enhance social memory in mice.
CA2, a small region of the hippocampus, is essential for social learning, a new study reports.
Pyramidal cells in the CA2 region of the hippocampus are responsible for storing critical timing information.
Researchers have created a new model that may help explain how the brain stores memories of tangible events. The new model explains how neural activity in the hippocampus can help map space, time and context in episodic memories.
Researchers report specific alterations in signaling circuits associated with memory can induce an abnormal response in neurons, which is linked to the aging process and cognitive decline.
Researchers engineered chimeras to tune the speed of neurotransmitter release.
A new study provides additional insight into how the brain stores and encodes new information.
A new neuroimaging study reveals sex-based differences in the development of the hippocampus and amygdala. The findings may shed light on sex-based differences in the emergence of mental health disorders the occur during adolescence and early adulthood.
A new study identifies a key factor in regulating information transmission during the early stages of auditory processing.
Aarhus researchers provide new insight into the workings of the calcium pump.
