Where do we record and store our memories? Recent research reveals that our memory extends far beyond just our brain.

How does the brain store—and access—our memories? While our understanding of the brain has (thankfully) developed greatly ...

Remarkably, each neuron can form thousands of these connections. Similar to computers, we measure the brain’s memory storage in “bits,” and the number of bits it can hold rests on the number and ...

Researchers led by the University of California, Irvine are the first to reveal how two neural circuits located in the ...

Astrocytes, non-neuronal brain cells, have been shown to work alongside neurons to store and recall memories, reshaping our ...

Researchers have discovered a neural mechanism for memory integration that stretches across both time and personal experience.

A study published in Nature by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine changes the way we understand memory. Until now, ...

New research reveals that astrocytes, a type of non-neuronal brain cell, play a significant role in memory storage and recall ...

Learn how non-neural cells can retain memories, opening new avenues for cognitive health and treatments and memory is not just a brain function.

While the brain is well-known for memory storage, a new study reveals that other parts of the body may also retain memory.

However, the role of astrocytes in storage and retrieval of memories has not been investigated ... tools to identify and ...
