Monash University researchers have found in laboratory experiments that a drug which delivers copper to the brain ...

Rodent paradigms for spatial learning and memory have been instrumental in dissecting the neural substrates of navigation, cognition and disease. Classic tasks such as the Morris water maze, Barnes ...

A research team has discovered new neural circuits that regulate spatial learning and memory in the brain's hippocampal formation. The team identified novel functional roles of new circuit connections ...

Nuri Jeong remembers the feeling of surprise she felt during a trip back to South Korea, while visiting her grandmother, who'd been grappling with Alzheimer's disease. "I hadn't seen her in six years, ...

There is direct evidence of spatial learning in any butterfly or moth species. Melissa Breyer was Treehugger’s senior editorial director before moving to Martha Stewart. Her writing and photography ...

Astrocytes form large networks of interconnected cells in the central nervous system. When these cell-to-cell couplings are disrupted in the brain of adult mice, the animals are no longer able to ...

earning spatial elements of a new environment is important for people and animals. However, how this process occurs in the brain remains poorly understood. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) are abundantly ...

Do you struggle to visualise how to rotate your shoes so that they nest together in a shoe box? How are you with flat-packed furniture? Are you good at giving directions? These everyday activities ...

Inside the Spatial Meeting environment, students have an immersive experience of being in the classroom while also being able to engage with renderings of objects, achieving an experience Cisco calls ...
