A key feature of memory is our ability to selectively recall particular experiences even if they occurred in a setting shared with other events. For example, if a person is asked to recommend a ...

Sometimes, we search for information in long-term memory and find it—a name, a movie title, or a vivid example to support a general conclusion. Other times, we're unable to recall what we believe we ...

In a previous study, we found that patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and borderline personality disorder (BPD) showed better autobiographical memory (AM) retrieval after ...

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, ...

They obtained these results using an innovative new eye tracking technique they developed. "Our findings indicate that eye movements play a functional role in memory retrieval," says Dr. Jennifer Ryan ...

A new study proves spontaneous hypothalamic histamine fluctuations gate moment-to-moment memory accessibility.

Past neuroscience research has pinpointed many of the neural processes through which the human brain forms, stores and retrieves important information, such as domain-specific knowledge and memories.

The average human brain weighs about 3 pounds and contains 80 to 100 billion neurons, which are the cells that store information. But how do these cells store information? How do we retrieve that ...

A new study uses optogenetics and roflumilast to prove sleep deprivation blocks memory retrieval, not storage.

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 ...

Microsoft takes a defense-in-depth approach to protect AI memory spanning every layer of the stack: storage, retrieval, model ...
