Rather than holding information in specific areas of the brain, our memories are represented by the connections between neurons, called synapses. According to a recent study from the Salk Institute in ...

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 ...

Decades of research has found that exercise is helpful for overall health and fitness, doing everything from lowering your risk of heart disease to helping you sleep better. According to a new study, ...

Episodic memory is a type of long-term memory. It helps you remember the time, place, and details surrounding a specific event or experience in your life. For example, remembering what you had for ...

Brain researchers long knew that the model for studying memory oversimplified the complex processes that the brain uses to decide what to keep and for how long. A new study demonstrated “a cascade of ...

As the popular saying goes, “An elephant never forgets — or does it? Elephants are intelligent mammals that can recall faces and places, but how much can they actually remember? Let’s find out about ...

Research continues to indicate how imperative it is for us to start protecting our memory earlier in life. But when it comes to implicit vs. explicit memory, what’s the difference? Why are they ...

Scientists have created a novel probabilistic model for 5-minutes ahead PV power forecasting. The method combines a convolutional neural network with bidirectional long short-term memory, attention ...
