Think learning and memory are all the job of the brain? You might want to think again, if the results of a recent study are ...

Astrocytes, once thought to be the brain’s housekeepers, may actually be silent powerhouses of memory.

While some researchers are working on growing organoids to the 10-million-cell size scientists estimate they will need to be to run a computer and access memory capabilities anywhere close to a ...

About ten years ago, it was discovered that the cells of the innate system also have memory, allowing them to respond stronger and faster to repeated infections. This is called trained immunity.

Now, researchers at the University of Zurich (UZH) have devised a method that allows them to track live under the microscope how ... on the diversity of cells. Computer-assisted cell tracking ...
