A song from childhood can hit you out of nowhere. A smell can carry you back decades. Then again, yesterday’s errands fade ...
Long-term memory emerges from a sequence of molecular programs that sort, stabilize, and reinforce important experiences.
Your brain is your body’s control center. But how much do you really know about what it does? The brain is one of the most complex organs in your body. It’s the control center that oversees pretty ...
New research shows that long-term memory is not stored by a single molecular switch, but by a sequence of timed genetic programs unfolding across different brain regions.
Scientists have identified three key molecules that decide how long a memory lasts. Two of them, CAMTA1 and TCF4, work in the ...
