Learn how the brain’s replay system helps us consolidate memories — and what goes wrong when Alzheimer’s disease interferes with the process. Glitches in the brain’s “replay” process may be behind the ...

Scientists have found that the precise timing of electrical activity in our brains determines how well we process the world around us. This new knowledge could have ...

Boosting mitochondrial calcium by inhibiting the LETM1 protein enhances long-term memory formation in flies and mice.

New research suggests Alzheimer’s memory loss may be linked to disruptions in the brain’s replay mode. Here's how sleep, hippocampus function, and memory consolidation play a role in cognitive decline ...

Muscle memory isn't just about muscles; it's your brain and nervous system adapting to repeated movements, making them automatic. Previously trained muscles also retain structural changes, allowing ...

Researchers led by Masako Tamaki at the RIKEN Center for Brain Science in Japan report a link between deep sleep and cerebrospinal fluid, the clear liquid that surrounds and supports the brain and ...

In “How to Change a Memory,” neuroscientist Steve Ramirez embarks on a project to find and reactivate memories in the brains of mice. November 14, 2025 The following is an excerpt from How to Change a ...

In a groundbreaking study published on October 23, 2025, scientists have successfully reversed brain aging and memory loss in mice. This achievement was made possible through innovative techniques ...
