A new study changes the way we understand memory. Until now, memories have been explained by the activity of brain cells called neurons that respond to learning events and control memory recall.

Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things happen. But how it processes what you see—like objects or images—has been a ...

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and someday, it could inspire advances in AI and Alzheimer's research. When you ...

Scientists now know that while we snooze, our brains help solidify the memories we made during the day. In this Special Feature, we investigate whether simple techniques might help improve memory ...

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 ...

Memory, as the paper describes, is the key capability that allows AI to transition from tools to agents. As language models ...

Has this ever happened to you? You’re having dinner with your family or friends. Suddenly, your beverage gets knocked over, and it spills all over the table, making a mess. Think back to that moment.

Put away your phone, picture this, and remember it. The entry to all new learning is like a doorway. Information crosses the threshold ushered by what captures our attention. Our capacities to see, ...

A study published in Nature by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine changes the way we understand memory. Until now, memories have been explained by the activity of brain cells called neurons ...
