• Prion-Like Protein Plays A Key Role In Storing Long-Term Memories

  
  Health News from Medical News Today — Authority: 692
  Memories in our brains are maintained by connections between neurons called "synapses". But how do these synapses stay strong and keep memories alive for decades? Neuroscientists at the Stowers Institute for Medical Research have discovered a major clue from a study in fruit flies: Hardy, self-copying clusters or ...

• Exploring Insect Brains Reveals Mechanism Behind Associative Memory

  
  Health News from Medical News Today — Authority: 692
  A key feature of human and animal brains is that they are adaptive; they are able to change their structure and function based on input from the environment and on the potential associations, or consequences, of that input. For example, if a person puts his hand in a fire and gets burned, he learns to avoid flames; ...
