Memory is not a recording device. It doesn't play back events like a video camera would. Instead, it's a remarkably active, ...

While neurogenesis—the growth of new brain cells—typically slows with age, superagers produce new neurons in the hippocampus at twice the rate of healthy older adults. In contrast, individuals with ...

"This is biological proof that their brains are more plastic, and a real discovery that shows that neurogenesis of young ...

Marta Rodriguez Aramendía, Mariachiara Esposito and Raphael Kaplan (with Lubna Abdul and Ameer Ghouse) have published the results of two paper that reveal new data about the behaviour of the human ...

A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...

Memory is often understood purely on a theoretical, cognitive basis. However, this perspective can only explain so much. Neuroanatomy offers an understanding of the physical areas of the brain in ...

This study uses a Bayesian framework to characterize latent brain state dynamics associated with memory encoding and performance in children, as measured with functional magnetic resonance imaging.
