Fruit flies may use dopamine to learn in similar ways to humans. Read More
Students who embarked on online learning went to bed, on average, thirty minutes later than they did while entered into in-person learning. They also slept less efficiently and napped more during the day. Read More
Eating a Mediterranean-style diet can help protect the brain from tau protein build-up and brain shrinkage associated with Alzheimer's disease. Read More
Novel gene therapy treatment prevents learning impairments and memory loss in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease. Read More
Study reveals hippocampal maps predict context-dependent behaviors. Read More
A neuroimaging study of people with Down syndrome reveals subtle differences in the structure and function of the hippocampus. Read More
Alterations in internal states can influence how behavior improves with learning. Read More
Whether an infant is monolingual or exposed to two languages, researchers found they prefer to listen to an adult indulging in baby-talk. Read More
When the ventral tegmental area was stimulated, monkeys were better able to identify details associated with subconscious visual stimuli they were exposed to. Read More
Researchers have identified a connectivity fingerprint that suggests the brain's reading network works across different cognitive domains, even mathematical skills. Read More
In older mice, adult neurons in the primary visual cortex with an increased number of "silent synapses" and lacking PSD-95, showed the same structural changes only seen previously in younger animals. Read More
An increase in theta oscillations in the hippocampus help make learning and subsequent memory more efficient. Read More
