Recent research suggests that repeated "replays" of episodic memories—i.e., memories of personal episodes from our past—can help improve our ability to visually distinguish between scenes, faces, and ...

A recent study published in Nature Neuroscience reports that retinotopic coding may determine how information from the retina is processed in the brain cortex. How does sensory signaling interact with ...

A collaboration between SISSA’s Physics and Neuroscience groups has taken a step forward in understanding how memories are stored and retrieved in the brain. The study, recently published in Neuron, ...

Our memories are rich in detail: we can vividly recall the color of our home, the layout of our kitchen, or the front of our favorite cafe . How the brain encodes this information has long puzzled ...
