Our diet directly influences the clarity of our mind. A recent study sheds light on the cellular mechanisms by which high-fat ...
Modern lifestyles and dietary changes have significantly increased the consumption of high-fat foods, contributing to a steep rise in the prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disorders.
A study in Advanced Science has pinpointed how a high-salt diet can lead to cognitive decline. Researchers found excess salt ...
A new study in mice demonstrates how a high-fat diet may quickly impact the brain, hindering memory formation processes.
When a new memory forms the brain undergoes physical and functional changes known collectively as a “memory trace.” This memory trace represents the specific patterns of neuronal activity and ...
Immediate-early genes (IEGs), including c-Fos, are integral to the brain's response to stimuli. Initially identified as a proto-oncogene, c-Fos is essential for neural activity, synaptic plasticity, ...
Scientists discover a new pathway to long-term memory formation in the brain that can bypass the formation of short-term memory. Researchers from Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience have ...
“If we go back to the early 1900s, this is when the idea was first proposed that memories are physically stored in some location within the brain,” says Michael R. Williamson, a researcher at the ...
The freshwater pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis has emerged as an invaluable invertebrate model for the study of memory formation and central nervous system (CNS) function. Its relatively simple yet ...
That constant tab-switching habit might be doing more harm to your brain than you think. We’ve all been there – responding to emails while joining a Zoom call, scrolling social media during a TV show, ...
