Scientists discover a new pathway to long-term memory formation in the brain that can bypass the formation of short-term memory. Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have ...

"Practice makes perfect" is no mere cliché, according to a new study from researchers at The Rockefeller University and UCLA. Instead, it's the recipe for mastering a task, because repeating an ...

Using optogenetics techniques, scientists from Max Planck Florida Institute of Neuroscience identified a new pathway for forming long-term memories in the brain. Their findings suggest that long-term ...

A new study led by UCLA Health has shown that repetitive practice not only is helpful in improving skills but also leads to profound changes in the brain’s memory pathways. The research, published in ...

Virginia Tech researchers have shown that memory loss in aging may be reversible. Using CRISPR tools, they corrected molecular disruptions in the hippocampus and amygdala, restoring memory in older ...

Writing for The Conversation (republished below), researchers Jaideep Kapur, director of the University of Virginia Brain Institute, and Anastasia Brodovskaya, a UVA postdoctoral fellow in neurology, ...
