Until now, molecular-level DNA circuits have mainly been used for simple tasks, such as detecting the presence of ...

Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists discovered cells within the brain's hippocampus that store memories of specific locations. These cells also play an important role in storing memories of events, ...

New research shows that sleep loss alters specific memory circuits, but also hints that a familiar compound may help restore ...

Using a sophisticated brain-imaging system, neuroscientists at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they have successfully reactivated a specific memory circuit in mice, causing them to seek out shelter when no ...

Every thought, memory, and feeling we experience depends on trillions of tiny connection points in the brain called synapses. These are the junctions where one neuron passes signals to another, ...

A team led by the Institute for Neurosciences (IN), a joint center of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and Miguel Hernández University of Elche (UMH), has identified a brain circuit ...

Recent research has shown that non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in particular, can modulate core memory ...

Using a sophisticated brain-imaging system, neuroscientists say they have successfully reactivated a specific memory circuit in mice, causing them to seek out shelter when no shelter is actually ...
