Neuronal sequences in the medial prefrontal cortex of the brain encode critical information associated with a procedural rule. These sequences can be explored and leveraged as novel biomarkers for ...

A new Nature Neuroscience study reveals that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex regulates how the hippocampus links related memories, preventing false associations. Researchers used advanced imaging ...

A team of scientists has demonstrated that communication among memory-coding neurons -- nerve cells in the brain responsible for maintaining working memory -- is disrupted with aging and that this can ...

An international team of scientists led by the University of Surrey has discovered that a form of safe, painless, and non-invasive brain stimulation could help people who are at risk of falling behind ...

Neuroscientists are uncovering the hidden architecture of memory, revealing how the prefrontal cortex, hippocampus, and other brain regions work together to store our life stories. From encoding vivid ...

A simple handgrip test may reveal more than muscle power in very old adults, offering insight into how physical strength aligns with brain activation in regions that support working memory. Study: The ...
