Hello. This is Yusuke.This time, the article focuses on the theme of "memory".・Why do we immediately forget trivial ...

Direct recordings in neurosurgical patients show that category-selective amygdala neurons fire earlier and more strongly for ...

A walnut-sized area of the brain known as the amygdala plays a giant role in determining which experiences end up in long-term memory and which are forgotten.

These findings therefore reveal that aversive memory formation in humans depends on an amygdala-hippocampus "phase code": The amygdala coordinates the neuronal activity in the hippocampus, ...

The findings are the first example of electrical brain stimulation in humans giving an event-specific boost to memory lasting more than a few minutes, Emory neuroscientists say.Stimulation of the ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers investigated whether post-encoding ripples improve emotional memory through amygdala-hippocampal memory restoration or ...

Neurons that specifically reduce and modulate electrical brain activity have a greater influence on emotional memories than previously thought. DZNE researchers came to this conclusion based on ...
