Altering genetic blueprint of receptors in brain could help stroke victims avoid brain damage
A University of Central Florida researcher has discovered that altering a receptor that mediates communication between nerve cells in the brain significantly improves animals' chances of surviving strokes and allows them to remain healthier afterwards. view more (2006-04-11)
Scientists zero in on memory-related proteins at the core of Alzheimer's disease
New research sheds light on how the formation of long-term memories may be blocked in Alzheimer's disease. view more (2005-10-19)
Study suggests we remember the bad times better than the good
Do you remember exactly where you were when you learned of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks? Your answer is probably yes, and researchers are beginning to understand why we remember events that carry negative emotional weight. view more (2007-08-29)
The Correct Fingerprint Counts - New Method Designed To Improve The Transmission Security Of Sensitive Data
Neuroscientists at Bonn University have developed a new process for encoding sensitive data in such a way that only the intended recipient can read them -using, for example, authentication per iris scan or fingerprint. They are presenting their concept, for which a patent has now been applied for, at the Hanover Trade Fair (Pavilion 18, stand AO2)... view more... (2004-04-07)
Drug rescues memory lost to Alzheimer's disease
A drug similar to one used in clinical trials for treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis has been found to rescue memory in mice exhibiting Alzheimer's symptoms. view more (2009-07-15)
UCI neurobiologists find treatment to block memory-related drug cravings
A novel chemical compound that blocks memory-related drug cravings has the potential to be the basis of new therapies to aid drug-addiction recovery efforts, UC Irvine neurobiologists have found. view more (2005-09-19)
Cerebrospinal fluid shows Alzheimer's disease deterioration much earlier
It is possible to determine which patients run a high risk of developing Alzheimer's disease and the dementia associated with it, even in patients with minimal memory impairment. This has been shown by recent research at the Sahlgrenska Academy. view more (2009-06-18)
Why you remember names and ski slopes
When you meet your boss's husband, Harvey, at the office holiday party, then bump into him an hour later over the onion dip, will you remember his name? view more (2007-11-26)
UCLA study finds that simple lifestyle changes may improve cognitive function and brain efficiency
A UCLA research study published in the June issue of the American Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry found that people may be able to improve their cognitive function and brain efficiency by making simple lifestyle changes such as incorporating memory exercises, healthy eating, physical fitness and stress reduction into their daily lives. view more (2006-05-23)
ASU researchers improve memory devices using nanotech
Arizona State University's Center for Applied Nanoionics (CANi) has a new take on old memory, one that promises to boost the performance, capacity and battery life of consumer electronics from digital cameras to laptops. Best of all, it is cheap, made from common materials and compatible with just about anything currently on the market. view more (2007-10-24)
Exercise can aid recovery after brain radiation
Exercise is a key factor in improving both memory and mood after whole-brain radiation treatments in rodents, according to data presented by Duke University scientists at the Society for Neuroscience meeting. view more (2009-10-19)
UT Southwestern researchers discover brain's memory 'buffer' in single cells
Individual nerve cells in the front part of the brain can hold traces of memories on their own for as long as a minute and possibly longer, researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have found. view more (2009-01-26)
Twin establishes University of York scholarships for tragic brother
The twin of a York graduate, who was a victim of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001, has established three scholarships in memory of his brother at the University of York, where they both studied. view more (2005-04-08)
Researchers identify 1 of the necessary processes in the formation of long-term memory
A new study that was carried out at the University of Haifa has identified another component in the chain of actions that take place in the neurons in the process of forming memories. view more (2009-09-08)
The clear future of electronics
A group of scientists at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) has fabricated a working computer chip that is almost completely clear -- the first of its kind. view more (2008-12-10)
Transplant drug stimulates immune memory
Rapamycin, a drug given to transplant recipients to suppress their immune systems, has a paradoxical effect on cells responsible for immune memory, scientists at the Emory Vaccine Center have discovered. view more (2009-06-22)
New MIT tool probes brain circuits
Researchers at the Picower Institute for Learning and Memory at MIT report in the Jan. 24 online edition of Science that they have created a way to see, for the first time, the effect of blocking and unblocking a single neural circuit in a living animal. view more (2008-01-25)
