For decades, Alzheimer’s research has largely focused on slowing decline, not restoring what was lost. Now a series of animal ...

One in three families knows someone living with memory loss, and late-onset Alzheimer’s disease affects tens of millions worldwide. The strongest common genetic risk factor is APOE: the E4 isoform ...

Neuroscientist Steve Ramirez has found ways to plant memories in mice. Here's what that could mean for humans.

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 ...

Activating two somatostatin receptors enhances amyloid beta breakdown and improves memory in models of Alzheimer’s disease. Scientists at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden and the RIKEN Center for Brain ...

Cedars-Sinai researchers created “young” immune cells from human stem cells that reversed cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s symptoms in mice. The treated animals showed better memory and healthier ...

Scientists reversed advanced Alzheimer's in mice using a compound that restores cellular energy. The breakthrough challenges ...

A team of researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has found that accelerating the brain’s waste removal system could have tremendous implications for our memory. As ...

Tooth loss doesn't just make eating harder, it may also make thinking more challenging. A new study from Hiroshima University ...

“This is a paradigm shift,” says Donn Van Deren, PhD, postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, who ...

A new study suggests temporal lobe epilepsy may be linked to early aging of certain brain cells. When researchers removed these aging cells in mice, seizures dropped, memory improved, and some animals ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain's neuronal connections, and as a result, in signal ...
