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 ...

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 ...

A team of scientists from the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has unveiled how the hippocampus orchestrates multiple memory processes, ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. When Todd Sacktor was about to turn 3, his 4-year-old sister died of leukemia. “An empty bedroom next to mine. A swing set with two ...

Trauma theory shift: A new model suggests trauma is a disorder of brain threat prediction, not stored in body tissues, with flow states offering potential recovery benefits. Paper boosts recall: ...

Social memory - the ability to recognize familiar individuals and distinguish them from strangers - is fundamental to social cognition. Deficits in social memory are hallmarks of multiple ...

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 ...
