Researchers capture the first direct evidence in humans that a single 20-minute exercise session triggers memory-boosting brain ripples.

The reactivation of patterns of neuronal activity based on experience is crucial for learning and memory, but these patterns and the associated brain waves vary widely and are difficult to classify.

The brain can retrieve memories that never reach conscious awareness, offering new clues about how forgetting and memory ...
