While humans are observing their surroundings, their eyes tend to rapidly shift between different objects, people and details ...

Episodic memory encoding refers to the process by which experiences are transformed into stable neural representations that can later be recalled as events situated in time and place. In healthy ...

Memory encoding and retrieval arise from dynamic interactions among the hippocampus, neocortex and associated cortical regions. During encoding, sensory inputs are bound into cohesive representations ...

Several studies have indicated that forgotten memories may not be as irretrievable as once thought. Memory appears to be closely tied to the context in which it was encoded. Consequently, remembering ...

The study shows, for the first time in a realistic setting, the role of ripple-type brain waves in memory encoding and storage. A research team from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of ...

Dynamic mechanisms of engram maturation. During the allocation, engram allocation is primarily governed by enhancements in intrinsic neuronal excitability, driven primarily by increased ...

New psychology findings, discussed by Jessica Tarlov, explain why people forget names right after meeting them, asserting ...

That constant tab-switching habit might be doing more harm to your brain than you think. We’ve all been there – responding to emails while joining a Zoom call, scrolling social media during a TV show, ...

A new study suggests that recalling the context in which a memory was made can help to restore the memory after it has ...

A research team has identified, for the first time in humans, and in a realistic environment, a key neurophysiological mechanism in memory formation: ripple-type brain waves—high-frequency electrical ...
