A new brain imaging study reveals that remembering facts and recalling life events activate nearly identical brain networks.

Researchers have investigated the shared and unique neural processes that underlie different types of long-term memory: general semantic, personal semantic and episodic memory. Long-term memory can be ...

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

New UK research challenges some scientists' fundamental assumptions about how memory works, relying on the entire brain.

It's easy to forget important events like a work deadline or an anniversary, but understanding how memory works can help. Cognitive psychologist Endel Tulving introduced the idea of episodic and ...

Memory actually takes many different forms. We know that when we store a memory, we are storing information. But, what that information is and how long we retain it determines what type of memory it ...

With transistors and logic gates as our basic building blocks, we can begin to construct the actual circuits that make up computer memory. One of the simplest memory circuits is the AND gate, which ...

Memory is one of a very few elite electronic components essential to any electronic system. Modern electronics perform extraordinarily complex duties that would be impossible without memory. Your ...
