These findings not only deepen our understanding of memory encoding and retrieval but also provide insights into the hippocampus's role as a coordinator and its interaction with the neocortex.

This is an example of context-dependent memory, also known as encoding specificity. The general principle of encoding specificity states that retrieval of previously learned information is better ...

Sometimes, we search for information in long-term memory and find it—a name, a movie title, or a vivid example to support a general conclusion. Other times, we're unable to recall what we ...

retrieval is how we get information out of the brain. Differences in each or a combination of these aspects might help explain why memories differ from one person to another. Memory encoding ...

Memory doesn’t seem to flow very well in two directions. If a brain is busy encoding, it’s going to be weaker at retrieval, and vice-versa. So the students primed with a new scene struggled to ...

During the process of encoding novel memories, gamma neuronal activity was coupled to a certain phase of the theta waves, while during memory retrieval, gamma activity was coupled to the opposite ...
