For decades, Alzheimer’s disease has been described as a one‑way street, a slow erosion of memory that could at best be delayed, not undone. A wave of animal studies is now challenging that assumption ...

In a new study, a molecule identified and synthesized by UCLA Health researchers was shown to restore cognifitive functions in mice with Alzheimer’s disease symptoms. The compound effectively ...

A team of scientists from Wake Forest University School of Medicine and the University of Southern California (USC) have demonstrated the first successful use of a neural prosthetic device to recall ...

Here's good news for anyone worried about their aging brain: Studies have shown that almost half of people who develop mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are able to regain normal cognitive skills, ...

Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have demonstrated that caffeine can restore social memory impaired by sleep deprivation by ...

Kauwe, Pareja-Navarro et al. identify a KIBRA-dependent mechanism to repair the plasticity at synapses that is dysregulated in neurons underlying the loss of memory in tauopathy. The art depicts the ...

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — A molecule identified and synthesized by UCLA Health researchers was shown to restore cognitive functions in mice with symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease by basically giving the ...

The Department of Defense, through the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), recently announced that it is seeking proposals related to memory-restoring brain implants. In particular, ...

Age can make memory feel like something that only moves in one direction. A name slips away. A route you know well turns fuzzy. In Alzheimer's disease, that slide can look even steeper. Yet the brain ...
