In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers investigated whether post-encoding ripples improve emotional memory through amygdala-hippocampal memory restoration or ...

A structure deep in the brain, the hippocampus, plays a central role in forming new episodic memories (events and experiences ...

With the development of functional neuroimaging, there has been increasing interest in the neural systems responsible for long-term memory encoding 1,2. In early studies that used blocked designs, the ...

Emotional arousal can produce lasting, vivid memories for emotional experiences, but little is known about whether emotion can prospectively enhance memory formation for temporally distant information ...

Sensory memories are stored for a few seconds at most. They come from the five senses: hearing, vision, touch, smell, and taste. They are stored only for as long as the sense is being stimulated. They ...

Memory loss and "brain fog" may be long-term side effects of COVID-19, according to researchers. In a recent study published last week in the journal JAMA Network Open, Mt. Sinai Health System experts ...

Meta-analysis indicates that network-targeted noninvasive brain stimulation consistently enhances memory function supported by the hippocampal network, thus providing robust evidence that specific ...
