The average human brain weighs about 3 pounds and contains 80 to 100 billion neurons, which are the cells that store information. But how do these cells store information? How do we retrieve that ...
A new study proves spontaneous hypothalamic histamine fluctuations gate moment-to-moment memory accessibility.
Episodic memory retrieval involves the conscious re-experiencing of past events, drawing on a distributed network that centres on the hippocampus and extends into parietal and prefrontal cortices. The ...

Moment-to-moment memory access may depend on histamine neuron swings
The same memory can feel vivid and accessible one moment, yet stubbornly out of reach the next—even when the memory itself ...
Sometimes, we search for information in long-term memory and find it—a name, a movie title, or a vivid example to support a general conclusion. Other times, we're unable to recall what we believe we ...
A. Overview of hippocampal dynamics during movie watching. FMRI data from the hippocampus were measured at the voxel level, and low-dimensional subspaces for two types of novelty and memorability were ...
A new study uses optogenetics and roflumilast to prove sleep deprivation blocks memory retrieval, not storage.

Brain scans showed recalling a fact and reliving a memory light up nearly identical networks, a surprise to researchers who expected clear differences
A new fMRI study found that the brain activity produced when a person recalls a memorized fact and when that same person ...
Listen to the first notes of an old, beloved song. Can you name that tune? If you can, congratulations -- it's a triumph of your associative memory, in which one piece of information (the first few ...
Quantum memories, systems that store and retrieve information leveraging quantum mechanical effects, can outperform classical ...
