Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf holds up a specialized chip for recording electrical activity in brain organoids. Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven its incredible ...

Teachers are increasingly encouraged to become amateur neuroscientists. For the last decade, educational materials have promoted neuroplasticity, the brain’s capacity for adaptation, as the key to ...

When you get better at a skill—recognizing a familiar face in a crowd, spotting a typo at a glance, or anticipating the next move in a game—sensory neurons in your brain become more coordinated, ...

A randomized placebo controlled experiment shows that increasing noradrenaline during learning does not improve basic memory ...

In educational psychology, theories about how the brain processes information have long influenced teaching practices and curriculum development. One such influential framework is the PASS theory, ...

Researchers have created a protein that can detect the faint chemical signals neurons receive from other brain cells. By tracking glutamate in real time, scientists can finally see how neurons process ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...
