Aggregating ‘negative’ immunotherapy trials can uncover reproducible immune perturbations that are missed in single studies, ...

A recent brain imaging study reveals that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder consists of at least two distinct physical subtypes. This discovery suggests that patients may eventually benefit ...

Researchers have used brain imaging to show how memories can be reactivated in the brain without them reaching conscious awareness, showing that these memories persist even when we think they have ...

Superagers’ memory capacity rivals that of younger adults. A new study suggests their brains’ robust production of new ...

Pink noise — which is often used to mask environmental sound and induce sleep — might actually reduce REM sleep, a new study in the journal Sleep suggests. Why it matters: Noise machines have become a ...

These approaches assume, however, that AI is primarily a technical or managerial problem. In this new age, the most pressing ...

Neurodegenerative disease profoundly affects structures and pathways responsible for memory, cognition, and higher-order ...

See the world through the lens of science. Sign up for our free, daily newsletter Today in Science. A plume of red, a searing pain and the sounds of summer—these are fragments of my earliest memory, ...

Imperative motivation helps us address urgent goals, such as escaping a threat or winning a competition. However, imperative motivation can constrain attention and memory. Conversely, interrogative ...

In a study supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), researchers revealed the structural underpinnings of memory formation across a broad network of neurons in the mouse brain. This work ...

Cornell’s latest research connects pupil dynamics in mice during sleep to memory consolidation, a finding that could pave the way for advanced memory enhancement and more effective AI systems. A study ...

It has been known for nearly 20 years that slow, synchronous electrical waves in the brain during deep sleep support the formation of memories. However, the reason for this has remained unclear. Now, ...
