Summary: A new study links a person’s visual long term memory to tracking how an object moves. Source: Johns Hopkins Medicine. As Superman flies over the city, people on the ground famously suppose they see a bird, then a plane, and then finally realize it’s a superhero. But they haven’t just spotted the Man ofContinue reading “Study links a person’s visual long term memory to tracking how an object moves”
Stress-induced arousal impairs long term memory
A University of Virginia study was conducted to determine if stress enhance or impair memory Consolidation. Overall results provide consistent evidence that stress does not uniformly enhance memory consolidation. Although prior research has shown that stress during recall can interfere with memory, the current experiments obtained evidence of interference when stress was introduced after learningContinue reading “Stress-induced arousal impairs long term memory”
Sleep and Alzheimer
Eric Kandel: Short-term memory had been linked to functional changes in existing synapses, while long-term memory was associated with a change in the number of synaptic connections. Researchers at MIT have confirmed that sleep is essential for long-term storage of memories. Their study showed that mice unable to “replay” their awake experiences while asleep rememberContinue reading “Sleep and Alzheimer”
