          Memory Mechanics: How Young Brains Transition from Gist to Episodic Memory

          Researchers discovered key molecular mechanisms that shift children's memory formation from general or "gist-like" to event-based or "episodic". This change in memory formation typically occurs between ages four and six. The study identified that the maturation of inhibitory cells called parvalbumin-expressing (PV) interneurons, wrapped by a dense matrix called the perineuronal net, enables memory specificity and appropriately sized engrams.

          Stimulation of the Cerebellum Improves Episodic Memory in Older People

          Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) of the right cerebellum improved episodic memory in elderly people, a new study reports. The findings open the door to developing new, non-invasive therapies to treat age-related memory and cognitive problems.
