Electrical stimulation of the hippocampus activates the same receptor complexes as memory recall and learning, a new study reveals. Read More
Repeatedly administered tactile simulation over a sustained period of time alters neural processing of the hand area in the brain. The observable changes over time illustrate neuroplasticity and shed new light on the process of learning. Read More
Researchers discover a key receptor which is responsible for activating opposing forms of plasticity in the hippocampus. Read More
A study recently published in Neuron may provide new insights into how memory forms in the brain. Researchers discovered acquired olfactory memory is associated with synaptic long term potentiation, which can last for at least two weeks. Read More
A new study advances basic understanding of the biochemical mechanisms associated with how memories are formed. Read More
Researchers have discovered a possible new treatment for Alzheimer's disease after noticing the way in which insulin signaling works in the brains and pancreas of diabetic patients. Read More
Researchers have identified a novel role the RGS14 protein plays in limiting synaptic plasticity. Read More
New research could help to develop new methods for preventive measures against stress induced memory problems. Read More
Research combines antibody precision with toxic oxygen burst to inactivate neural protein and temporarily abolish fear memory in mice. Read More
Researchers describe using low current electrical stimulation on specific areas of the brain to enhance distinct memories. Read More
