New UK research challenges some scientists' fundamental assumptions about how memory works, relying on the entire brain.

A surprising new brain study suggests that remembering life events and recalling facts may rely on the same neural machinery.

A new study into how different parts of memory work in the brain has shown that the same brain areas are involved in ...

A new study challenges the long-standing belief that episodic and semantic memory rely on distinct brain systems.

Memory can be broken down into multiple types, including long-term memory, short-term memory, explicit and implicit memory, and working memory. Memory is a process in your brain that enables you to ...

Researchers have investigated the shared and unique neural processes that underlie different types of long-term memory: general semantic, personal semantic and episodic memory. Long-term memory can be ...

Memory actually takes many different forms. We know that when we store a memory, we are storing information. But, what that information is and how long we retain it determines what type of memory it ...
