In our study, we used our “hippocampus in a box” computer model that simulates how this brain structure supports learning and memory.
By working to understand how new AI systems integrate flexible and incremental learning, researchers gained insights about ...
A new study reveals that listening to music immediately after an experience can enhance memory—if the emotional response is just right.
Different learning tasks typically benefit from a prior analysis of how to approach the task. You wouldn’t want to approach learning mathematics the same way you would learn history. Because it ...
We found that the brain activity during this process is similar to memory recall,” said Dr. Daoyun Ji, professor of neuroscience at Baylor and lead author of the study. “The actual replay during or ...
BDNF is protective for the brain and plays a crucial role in learning and memory. Researchers have found that exercise boosts ...
Context-dependent memory is a widely researched phenomenon in cognitive psychology. But how can one use this effectively to learn better? State-dependent learning may be the answer.
In animal models, social isolation triggers memory and learning deficits that are mediated by hyperactivity of the most abundant brain cell, the astrocyte. Importantly, inhibiting this ...
20 years ago, competitive typing became all the rage in the school computer lab thanks to sessions of edutainment favorite Type to Learn.
