Now, a new study in rodents describes how learning still occurs in the absence of an immediate incentive. Wed, 09 Aug 2023 13:06:14 EDT https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230809130614.htm Memory, forgetting, and social learning https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230807152147.htm One of the most actively debated questions about human and non-human culture is this: under what circumstances might we expect culture, in particular the ability to learn from one another, to be favored by natural selection? Researchers have developed a simulation model of the evolution of social learning. They showed that the interplay between learning, memory and forgetting broadens the conditions under which we expect to see social learning to evolve. Mon, 07 Aug 2023 15:21:47 EDT https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230807152147.htm Insulin-like hormones critical for brain plasticity https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/08/230803213817.htm Research has identified a mechanism through which insulin-like growth factors facilitate brain plasticity. The insulin super-family of hormones, including insulin, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), and insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2), play a crucial role not only in regulating blood sugar, metabolism, and growth, but also in healthy brain development and function, including learning and memory. These hormones can enter the brain through the bloodstream from the liver or can be synthesized directly in neurons and glial cells within the brain. They bind to receptors, including the IGF1-Receptor, activating signals that modulate neuron growth and activity. Disruption of this signaling pathway is involved in cognitive decline and diseases such as Alzheimer's.

Mon, 06 Feb 2023 13:06:56 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/02/230206130656.htm An action plan to prevent Alzheimer's disease https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230131101908.htm Memory loss, behavioural changes, cognitive deficits: Alzheimer's disease leads to a dramatic loss of autonomy for those affected and has a heavy impact on health costs. Its prevention has become a real social challenge. An international task force is setting out guidelines for innovative services to prevent Alzheimer's disease. These will soon be an integral part of second generation memory clinics.

You might retrace your steps by scanning your memory using certain event boundaries -- when one event ends (say, walking in the door with your keys) and another begins (checking your phone, turning on the TV). Thu, 26 Jan 2023 16:19:49 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230126161949.htm Our memory for objects might be better than we think https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230123123255.htm The next time you're struggling to remember exactly where you left your keys, parked your car or put down your glasses, don't necessarily give up on your memory completely. Previous research has shown that, if people are shown a large number of objects, they are very good at subsequently remembering which objects they have seen. Mon, 23 Jan 2023 12:32:55 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230123123255.htm Why do we remember emotional events better? https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230118195926.htm Neuroscientists identified a specific neural mechanism in the human brain that tags information with emotional associations for enhanced memory. The team demonstrated that high-frequency brain waves in the amygdala, a hub for emotional processes, and the hippocampus, a hub for memory processes, are critical to enhancing memory for emotional stimuli. Disruptions to this neural mechanism, brought on either by electrical brain stimulation or depression, impair memory specifically for emotional stimuli.

Thu, 12 Jan 2023 18:21:03 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230112182103.htm New research shows dynamics of memory-encoding synapses in the brains of live mice https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230112113248.htm A team that has used two-photon imaging technology to show the creation and elimination of synapses between neurons in the brains of live mice. Thu, 12 Jan 2023 11:32:48 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230112113248.htm Glial cells help memory along https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230110151033.htm There are two fundamentally different cell types in the brain, neurons and glial cells. The latter, for example, insulate the 'wiring' of nerve cells or guarantee optimal working conditions for them. A new study has now discovered another function in rodents: The results suggest that a certain type of glial cell plays an important role in spatial learning. Tue, 10 Jan 2023 15:10:33 EST https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230110151033.htm Human-approved medication brings back 'lost' memories in mice https: //www.koonmotors.com/releases/2023/01/230109112750.htm Students sometimes pull an all-nighter to prepare for an exam. However, research has shown that sleep deprivation is bad for your memory. Now, neuroscientists have discovered that what you learn while being sleep deprived is not necessarily lost, it is just difficult to recall. Together with his team, he has found a way to make this 'hidden knowledge' accessible again.
