A computational model explains how place cells in the hippocampus can be recruited to form any kind of episodic memory, even when there's no spatial component. Nearly 50 years ago, neuroscientists ...

Using a sophisticated brain-imaging system, neuroscientists say they have successfully reactivated a specific memory circuit in mice, causing them to seek out shelter when no shelter is actually ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

A study by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine may change the way we understand memory. Until now, memories have been explained by the activity of neurons that respond to learning events and ...
