For decades, scientists have focused on the brain as the primary location for memory storage and processing. However, recent groundbreaking research from is challenging this long-standing assumption, ...

When we form a memory, brain cells need to deliver supplies to strengthen specific neural connections. A new study from MPFI and Weill Cornell Medicine has revealed how two cellular switches, Rab4 and ...

Traditionally, memory has been considered a function exclusive to the brain. However, groundbreaking research led by Dr. Nikolay Kukushkin at New York University (NYU) reveals that non-neural human ...

In wound healing, immune response, and cancer metastasis, cells migrate through the body – often squeezing through narrow, confined spaces. Together with experimental collaborators, Professor David ...

The human body is a remarkable archive of information, storing not just genetic data but also memories, experiences, and personality traits within individual cells. While mainstream science focuses on ...

A small but enthusiastic group of neuroscientists is exhuming overlooked experiments and performing new ones to explore whether cells record past experiences — fundamentally challenging what memory is ...

Over 37 years ago, when Dr Christiaan Barnard performed the first heart transplant surgery on Louis Washkansky, a 53-year-old ...

In a wholly new approach to cancer treatment, Northwestern University biomedical engineers have doubled the effectiveness of chemotherapy in animal experiments. Instead of attacking cancer directly, ...
