Cross-stage neural pattern similarity in the hippocampus predicts false memory derived from post-event inaccurate information

The misinformation effect occurs when people’s memory of an event is altered by subsequent inaccurate information. No study has systematically tested theories about the dynamics of human hippocampal ...

Re-expression of CA1 and entorhinal activity patterns preserves temporal context memory at long timescales

Converging, cross-species evidence indicates that memory for time is supported by hippocampal area CA1 and entorhinal cortex. However, limited evidence characterizes how these regions preserve ...

Memory breaks old divide as brains track details and patterns simultaneously

Our memory records details and detects patterns in everyday life—often without us even realizing it. Researchers at Lund University have for the first time succeeded in showing that the brain does ...

Breathing patterns found to influence memory retention in mice

A team of Japanese neurologists and physiologists has found that momentarily suspending breathing in mice during a learning exercise can inhibit memory retention. In their study, reported in the ...
