Why do memories fade in Alzheimer's disease—and can they be restored? University of California, Irvine researchers have ...

Researchers discovered that an 80% drop in dopamine causes Alzheimer's memory loss. Restoring dopamine with Levodopa rescued ...

A longstanding question in neuroscience is how mammalian brains (including ours) adapt to external environments, information, and experiences. In a paradigm-shifting study published in Nature, ...

A longstanding question in neuroscience is how mammalian brains, including ours, adapt to external environments, information and experiences. In a study published in Nature, researchers at the Jan and ...

This study illustrates the spatiotemporal dynamics of neuron subtype changes within the entorhinal cortex–hippocampal circuit during Alzheimer’s disease progression. EC-stellate neurons progressively ...

Multiple new studies highlight complementary strategies in the brain’s navigation system: grid cells in the entorhinal cortex flexibly switch reference points depending on context, while ...

Alzheimer’s disease is a condition that slowly takes away a person’s memory and thinking ability. It is one of the most ...

A group of scientists from the University of California at Irvine, led by associate professor of Anatomy and Neurobiology Kei ...

Researchers have discovered the mechanistic steps underlying a new type of synaptic plasticity called behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity (BTSP). The study reveals how the entorhinal cortex (EC) ...
