A new brain imaging study reveals that remembering facts and recalling life events activate nearly identical brain networks.

New UK research challenges some scientists' fundamental assumptions about how memory works, relying on the entire brain.

A surprising new brain study suggests that remembering life events and recalling facts may rely on the same neural machinery.

Researchers have investigated the shared and unique neural processes that underlie different types of long-term memory: general semantic, personal semantic and episodic memory. Long-term memory can be ...

Researchers from the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine) and Duke University ...

It's easy to forget important events like a work deadline or an anniversary, but understanding how memory works can help. Cognitive psychologist Endel Tulving introduced the idea of episodic and ...

A new design for computer memory that could both greatly improve performance and reduce the energy demands of internet and communications technologies, which are predicted to consume nearly a third of ...

Memory actually takes many different forms. We know that when we store a memory, we are storing information. But, what that information is and how long we retain it determines what type of memory it ...

Researchers have developed a new design for computer memory that could both greatly improve performance and reduce the energy demands of internet and communications technologies, which are predicted ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...
