A team of scientists from the Center for Neuroscience Imaging Research (CNIR) at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) has unveiled how the hippocampus orchestrates multiple memory processes, ...

In this Review, Fell and Axmacher discuss how phase synchronization of neural oscillations facilitates neural communication and plasticity, and thereby promotes memory processes. They propose that ...

A new study explored how the hippocampus and insula interact during the encoding of emotional memories in humans.

Three main processes characterize how memory works. Encoding is the first type and refers to how information is learned, understood, and changed to support storage.

Researchers found that post-encoding ripples in the brain enhance emotional memory by improving stimulus identification and arousal, indicating a selective reinforcement of salient events for ...

In analyzing the map, researchers saw structures of the brain they expected to be involved in the memory making process, such as the thalamic, cortical, midbrain and brainstem. But they also saw more ...

Lesson 1: Encoding, consolidation, retrieval, re-consolidation. First, it was rather obvious that I couldn’t memorize some piece of her instruction if it did not register in the first place.
