A new study has uncovered how the brain efficiently encodes and recalls visual memories—by organizing them into categories and using the precise timing of neuronal activity.

Researchers at the University of Southern California have made a significant breakthrough in understanding how the human brain forms, stores and recalls visual memories. A new study, published in ...

Researchers at the University of Southern California have discovered how the human brain organizes visual memories.

A new study shows that astrocytes use a protein called Gat3 to manage ambient GABA levels, helping neurons work together to ...

MIT researchers employed a novel application of tools and analysis to show that astrocytes ensure neural information processing by maintaining ambient levels of the neurotransmitter chemical GABA.

Cells called astrocytes are about as abundant in the brain as neurons, but scientists have spent much less time figuring out how they contribute to brain functions.

A long-standing debate in cognitive neurosciences concerns the effect of music on verbal learning and memory. Research in this field has largely provided conflicting results in both clinical as well ...

High-quality output at low latency is a critical requirement when using large language models (LLMs), especially in ...

Metaphors are a fundamental aspect of human language and cognition, allowing us to understand complex concepts and ...
