Researchers at the University of Southern California have made a significant breakthrough in understanding how the human ...

A tiny region Locus Coeruleus located in your brainstem, acts like a powerful memory reset button. It's pivotal for forming ...

The “missing link” helps adults grow new neurons—something long thought to end after childhood—and that discovery could lead ...

A new study reveals that neurons in the brain’s memory center, the hippocampus, continue to form well into late adulthood. A ...

Scientists have found evidence of new brain cells sprouting in adults - a process that many thought only occurred in children ...

A study in the journal Science presents compelling new evidence that neurons in the brain's memory center, the hippocampus, continue to form well into late adulthood. The research from Karolinska ...

Accepting whatever the future brings helped the five members of Hippo Campus find a better footing as a band, they explain.

While other parts of the brain are involved in the process of memory, the hippocampus appears to bring pieces together across time and form them into connected, narrative memories, Cohn-Sheehy said.

A new brain imaging study shows that the hippocampus (green) is the brain's master storyteller, weaving memories of past events into a coherent narrative. Image: Brendan Cohn-Sheehy, Center for ...

New research investigates how we form memories, and discovers that apart from the hippocampus, a previously neglected brain area plays a crucial role.

The ability to form associations between events is the hallmark of episodic memory and is thought to involve the hippocampus. Here the authors use a combination of multivariate pattern and graph ...

The hippocampus, a skinny log of brain tissue tucked in deep above your ear, is the star of memory research. People with damaged hippocampi — such as the famous patient Henry Molaison, known as ...
