A team of neuroscientists has restored lost memory function in cognitively impaired mice by flipping a molecular switch ...
An old mouse fumbles a maze it once knew cold. Its hippocampus, the brain’s memory hub, is clogged with an iron-storage ...
Researchers found that localized estrogen loss in the brain caused memory and social impairments in aging female mice. The ...
Harvard Medical School researchers studying mice and human tissues have found a link between lithium (Li) deficiency in the brain and the development of Alzheimer’s disease. Headed by Bruce Yankner, ...
Virginia Tech researchers have shown that memory loss in aging may be reversible. Using CRISPR tools, they corrected molecular disruptions in the hippocampus and amygdala, restoring memory in older ...
Harvard scientists have uncovered that lithium, a naturally occurring element in the brain, may be the missing piece in understanding Alzheimer’s. Their decade-long research shows that lithium ...
Boston University professor and neuroscientist Steve Ramirez promoted his new book, which dives into his experiences with grief after the death of his research partner and explores the science of ...
We become forgetful as we age. This is often seen as a universal truth, but in fact it is far from universal: some people remain incredibly sharp at 100 years old, while others experience memory loss ...
New research suggests chewing may increase brain blood flow, boost antioxidant activity, and stimulate memory-related brain ...
