The neurobiologist studying how the brain changes as it ages 2020-02-04T05:00:00Z In the hippocampus, using similar methods, Andersen and Eccles together pinpointed the first inhibitory synapse in the brain, going from basket cells to the bodies of pyramidal cells. Per Andersen (1930–2020) 2020-03-19T04:00:00Z The scarring was on her brain’s hippocampus, the section of the brain that controls several functions, including learning. A gift of a different kind: Newton woman is seizure free 2020-01-31T05:00:00Z Research on the role of the hippocampus in episodic memory exploded, largely in parallel to studies on its maplike functions.

An immune-cell signature marks the brain in Alzheimer’s disease 2020-01-07T05:00:00Z In one particularly striking experiment with mice, scientists found that simply running on a wheel led to the birth of new neurons in the hippocampus, a brain structure that is associated with memory. Why Your Brain Needs Exercise 2019-12-17T05:00:00Z By the early 1970s, Andersen’s lab had become a Mecca for studies of the hippocampus, with him as a steady source of ideas and encouragement. Per Andersen (1930–2020) 2020-03-19T04:00:00Z The researchers replicated two types of neurones, including cells from the hippocampus, an area of the brain that plays a major role in memory, and brain cells involved in the control of breathing. Artificial neurons developed to fight disease 2019-12-03T05:00:00Z The discoveries about the roles of the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex in spatial navigation and episodic memory were significant for at least a couple of reasons. In Search of the Brain’s Social Road Maps 2020-01-14T05:00:00Z The neurons were either from the hippocampus, a region that is crucial for memory and learning, or were involved in the subconscious control of breathing. Bionic neurons could enable implants to restore failing brain circuits 2019-12-03T05:00:00Z Scientists suspect that increased connections between existing neurons, rather than the birth of new neurons, are responsible for the beneficial effects of exercise on the prefrontal cortex and other brain regions outside the hippocampus. Why Your Brain Needs Exercise 2019-12-17T05:00:00Z Our work with him on LTP and animal learning found differences in function between regions of the hippocampus and demonstrated changes in connectivity related to behaviour. Per Andersen (1930–2020) 2020-03-19T04:00:00Z The communication between the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex provides the essential context that sparks the varying reactions. Deeper Insights Emerge into How Memories Form 2019-11-18T05:00:00Z That observation suggests that the hippocampus does not simply record a face or some other personal detail but rather ties together diverse social characteristics. In Search of the Brain’s Social Road Maps 2020-01-14T05:00:00Z Men’s brains are on the whole slightly larger than women’s, and scans reveal some differences in the size and connectedness of specific brain regions, such as the hippocampus, in large samples of men and women. Smashing the patriarchy: why there's nothing natural about male supremacy 2019-11-02T04:00:00Z This kind of spatial navigation relies on the hippocampus, the same brain region that benefits from exercise and that tends to atrophy as we get older.

In Search of the Brain’s Social Road Maps 2020-01-14T05:00:00Z Because the hippocampus is not where long-term memories are stored in the brain, its dynamic nature is not a flaw but a feature, Frankland says — something that evolved to aid learning. The forgotten part of memory 2019-07-23T04:00:00Z Researchers originally identified ripples in the hippocampus, a region crucially involved in memory and navigation, as central to diverting recollections to long-term memory during sleep.
