A new study has found that cells outside the brain may also play a role in storing memory. This could help in metabolic ...

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

To track this activation, the cells were engineered to produce a glowing protein whenever the memory gene was turned on, providing visible markers of memory processing. Notably, the non-neural cells ...

One of the most powerful assets of the brain is that it can store information as memories, allowing us to learn from our ...

If you’ve heard "you are what you eat," you already know. Here are five science-backed ways your diet affects your brain.

Researchers have uncovered a surprising role for astrocytes—cells surrounding neurons—in deciding which memories are kept or ...

A study of cells from 84 brains finds that Alzheimer’s has two distinct phases, and that one type of neuron is especially ...

A brain mapping study funded by the NIH reveals which cell types may be the first to be affected. New research funded by the ...

Scientists discovered that memory formation isn’t limited to the brain. Non-brain cells can activate memory genes, responding ...

Most of us think memories are stored only in the brain, but a recent study suggests that cells from other parts of the body can “remember” as well. This surprising discovery was made by a team of ...
