Scientists have found that blocking microglia (specialist immune cells in the brain) prevents infant forgetting ("infantile ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them—an effect called infantile amnesia. A ...

For a long time, neuroscientists treated this forgetting as a cognitive glitch or a simple lack of brainware maturity. But a ...

New research reveals memory loss with age follows a curved pattern, linked to widespread brain shrinkage rather than a single ...

A massive international brain study has revealed that memory decline with age isn’t driven by a single brain region or gene, ...

Memory loss may not simply be a symptom of getting older. New research from Virginia Tech shows that it's tied to specific molecular changes in the brain and that adjusting those processes can improve ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them-an effect called infantile amnesia. A type of brain immune cell called microglia might control this type of ...

Two separate studies have identified age-related molecular changes in the brain and adjusted them to improve memory. New research from Virginia Tech (VA, USA) shows that memory loss is tied to ...

In 2021, Suzanne was troubled to find that she was getting increasingly forgetful, despite only being in her fifties. She was sometimes unable to find the right word, would forget why she had gone ...
