Deep inside your brain there is always a you being in there. At the very core of your identity a kernel of self awareness combines memories of the past with the fleeting sensations of the […]
The World’s smallest atom-memory is providing 100 times higher memory density per layer Faster, smaller, smarter and more energy-efficient chips for everything from consumer electronics to big data to brain-inspired computing could soon be on […]
New key player in long-term memory A McGill-led multi-institutional research team has discovered that during memory consolidation, there are at least two distinct processes taking place in two different brain networks — the excitatory and […]
Magnetic memory states go exponential In a new study, a group of researchers led by Prof. Lior Klein, from the physics department and the Institute of Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials at Bar-Ilan University, has shown […]
How associative fear memory is formed in the brain How does the brain form “fear memory” that links a traumatic event to a particular situation? A pair of researchers at the University of California, Riverside, […]
Astronomers search for gravitational-wave memory Astronomers regularly observe gravitational waves (GW)—ripples in space and time—that are caused by pairs of black holes merging into one. Einstein’s theory of gravity predicts that GW, which squeeze and […]
