Working memory is the information we need to access to complete the tasks we’re engaged in right now, and scientists think it ...

To explore the possibility that people's spatial working memory is also influenced by error-based adaptive processes, Brissenden and his colleagues carried out five experiments. Three of these ...

Rodent paradigms for spatial learning and memory have been instrumental in dissecting the neural substrates of navigation, cognition and disease. Classic tasks such as the Morris water maze, Barnes ...

Researchers have joined forces to give a boost to spatial memory by creating a unique experimental setup that combines non-invasive deep-brain stimulation, virtual reality training, and fMRI imaging.

Working memory is a cognitive function that is essential for carrying out everyday activities and temporarily retaining information. This process enables us to understand information, learn and manage ...
