A recent study published in the journal Neurobiology of Aging determines whether a high-fat diet contributes to memory decline in older people compared to aging alone. Study: High-fat diet and ...

The reactivation of patterns of neuronal activity based on experience is crucial for learning and memory, but these patterns and the associated brain waves vary widely and are difficult to classify.

Sensory memories are stored for a few seconds at most. They come from the five senses: hearing, vision, touch, smell, and taste. They are stored only for as long as the sense is being stimulated. They ...

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which is commonly referred to as autism, is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by repetitive and restricted behavior, challenged social communication, ...

Some mild forgetfulness is a normal part of aging. But when does this occasional absentmindedness become something we should be concerned about? And are there measures we can take to minimize or even ...

Asthma is associated with memory problems in children, a new study has found. Further, the early onset of asthma might worsen potential memory deficits in kids, researchers found. This is the first ...

Depression and memory decline are intimately linked, with new research suggesting that each might affect the other. Nearly 1 in 5 American adults aged 65 and over experience depressive symptoms, ...

While a little forgetfulness is common as we get older, more significant memory loss can be a sign of a serious memory problem. “Impaired memory during aging was initially called age-associated ...

The chip industry is progressing rapidly toward 3D-ICs, but a simpler step has been shown to provide gains equivalent to a whole node advancement — extracting distributed memories and placing them on ...
