Music After Learning Boosts Memory, But Only at the Right Emotion Level

Music After Learning Boosts Memory, But Only at the Right Emotion Level

Summary: A new study reveals that listening to music immediately after an experience can enhance memory—if the emotional response is just right. Researchers found that volunteers who experienced moderate arousal while listening to music were better at recalling details, while those with stronger or weaker emotions remembered only the gist. This suggests that music can shift the balance between gist- …

​6 brain-boosting foods every child should eat for a sharper memory​

​6 brain-boosting foods every child should eat for a sharper memory​

Every parent has seen it – the half-asleep child staring at textbooks before school, or the glazed look that creeps in halfway through homework. It’s easy to blame lack of discipline, too much screen time, or even dull lessons. But often, the missing piece is simpler: food. The brain is the hungriest organ in the body, using up to 20% …

Scientists discover how to ‘truly reverse’ memory loss and keep the brain young

Scientists discover how to ‘truly reverse’ memory loss and keep the brain young

Researchers have reversed memory loss in aging mice by targeting a protein that builds up in brain cells, pointing toward a potential pathway to counter the cognitive declines of aging. In a new study, researchers from the University of California, San Francisco, examined a protein called ferritin light chain 1 (FTL1), which was found to accumulate in the brain’s memory …

Blocking Protein Reverses Age-Related Memory Loss

Blocking Protein Reverses Age-Related Memory Loss

Summary: Aging disrupts memory by increasing levels of the protein FTL1 in the hippocampus, new research shows. In mice, excess FTL1 caused neurons to grow abnormally and led to memory decline, while reducing FTL1 reversed these impairments. Old mice with suppressed FTL1 regained youthful neural connections and performed better on memory tasks. The findings suggest that blocking FTL1 may open …

Human neural organoid microphysiological systems show the building blocks necessary for basic learning and memory

Human neural organoid microphysiological systems show the building blocks necessary for basic learning and memory

Neural organoids were differentiated from iPSC-derived Neural Progenitor Cells (NPC) for up to 14 weeks and characterized throughout development (Fig. 1a). Gene expression of synaptic plasticity markers was quantified from week 0 to week 12. Calcium signaling development was analyzed from week 2 to week 14. Finally, electrical activity was characterized by High-Density Microelectrode Arrays (HD-MEAs) over two independent time periods, from …
