A new study shows that prolonging cellular energy in brain cells helps transform fleeting experiences into lasting memories.

An international team led by Jaime de Juan-Sanz at the Paris Brain Institute has shown that slightly increasing the metabolic capacity of neurons can enhance long-term memory in both fruit flies and ...

Q. I’m a physician and have long seen studies on using the nicotine patch for multiple disorders, including memory. Since it is a naturally occurring substance, I decided to give it a try. I started ...

Certain bitter plant compounds — the kind found naturally in cocoa, apples, berries and red wine — may temporarily boost memory by activating the brain's internal "alarm system," a new study suggests.

Cognitive science provides evidence-based methods to improve memory retention. These strategies leverage how the brain processes and stores information, connecting new data to existing knowledge for ...

Boosting mitochondrial calcium by inhibiting the LETM1 protein enhances long-term memory formation in flies and mice.

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

After treatment, the mice’s memories were essentially shunted back into a younger state. The researchers found that reprogrammed engrams displayed molecular behavior of more youthful cells. Using a ...
