Researchers at Leipzig University have gained important insights into learning mechanisms in the brain of the fruit fly ...

Brain study reveals memories stick when learning triggers a brief “energy emergency” in glucose-sensing neurons.

Letting an AI assistant handle the hard parts of thinking feels efficient in the moment, but a growing body of cognitive science research suggests that convenience comes at a measurable cost. When ...

From sharpening focus to sparking memories, music is proving to be more than just background noise. Research shows it can enhance learning, improve memory retention, and even protect brain health at ...

Neurodevelopment involves the brain's formation of systems responsible for learning, memory, social skills, and overall function. Critical neurodevelopmental processes such as neurogenesis, synaptic ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...

One of sleep’s key functions is to stabilize and integrate new memories into our brain’s long-term memory systems, a process known as "consolidation." This idea is now widely accepted, though it ...

Researchers at Google have developed a new AI paradigm aimed at solving one of the biggest limitations in today’s large language models: their inability to learn or update their knowledge after ...
