An Alzheimer’s risk gene scrambles brain circuits years before any memory slips
Researchers at the Gladstone Institutes have identified a specific protein, Nell2, that causes neurons in the hippocampus to ...
Virginia Tech neuroscientists have uncovered a mitochondrial process that supports the brain cells critical for learning, memory, and social recognition. Led by Shannon Farris, assistant professor at ...
Summary: Astrocytes, star-shaped non-neuronal cells, serve as active gatekeepers of long-term memory stability. By ...
Memories are thought to be encoded in the brain as enduring physical and chemical changes, or engrams. Although recent technological advances have enabled substantial progress in our understanding of ...
Virginia Tech scientists Shannon Farris (left) and Sharon Swanger of the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC have received support from the Commonwealth of Virginia’s Alzheimer’s and Related ...

Chronic alcohol use alters Alzheimer’s brain circuits differently based on underlying pathology
A new study published in the journal Neuropharmacology suggests that chronic alcohol consumption affects the brain ...
Schematic model showing how memory is consolidated in the prefrontal cortex and how circuitry through the amygdala shifts as hippocampal engram cells become silent and cortical engrams become active.
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 ...
