Neuroscientists and psychologists have been trying to understand how the human brain supports learning and the encoding of memories for over a century. Past studies suggest that memories are stored by ...

Computing is entering a period of fragmentation rather than convergence. As silicon scaling slows and energy costs climb, multiple alternative computing paradigms are emerging in parallel. Quantum ...

ABSTRACT: This study conducts a qualitative content analysis of the French magazine “Jeune Afrique”’s coverage of Ibrahim Traoré, the transitional president of Burkina Faso. Using framing theory, the ...

Scientists have long known that the hippocampus is essential for forming new memories. It helps record where and when things happen. But how it processes what you see—like objects or images—has been a ...

Bees’ remarkable visual learning abilities make them ideal for studying active information acquisition and representation. Here, we develop a biologically inspired model to examine how flight ...

The paper by Tolossa et al. presents classification studies that aim to predict the anatomical location of a neuron from the statistics of its in-vivo firing pattern. They study two types of ...

Summary: Researchers have identified neurons in the hippocampus that store “meal memories,” encoding both what and when food was consumed. These specialized memory traces, or meal engrams, form during ...
