A study has identified a neural mechanism in humans that allows us to segment our experience in discrete memory units. According to the research, the brain identifies context changes as 'frontiers' in ...

We tend to break things down into smaller components to make remembering easier. Event Segmentation Theory explains how we do ...

Memories and learning processes are based on changes in the brain’s neuronal connections and, as a result, in signal transmission between neurons. For the first time, DZNE researchers have observed an ...

The study shows, for the first time in a realistic setting, the role of ripple-type brain waves in memory encoding and storage. A research team from the Faculty of Psychology at the University of ...
