Researchers have linked disease-related proteins and genes to identify specific cellular pathways responsible for Alzheimer's genesis and progression. The proteins were gathered from cerebrospinal ...

In a new study, researchers identify the biological processes behind stress-induced aversive memory generalization and highlight an intervention which could help restore appropriate memory specificity ...

Researchers have discovered how stress disrupts memory specificity, leading to generalized aversive memories—a hallmark of PTSD.

Acute stress has been shown to prevent mice from forming specific memories, instead leading to more generalized memories ...

Researchers at The Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) have uncovered that stress changes how our brain encodes and ...
