Experiments have shown that consuming fast food at an early age disrupts the connection between the stomach and the brain in rats, leading to impaired spatial memory even after returning to a healthy diet.
A pilot study has shown that reducing the daily eating window may not only help older women lose weight, but can also moderately improve their cognitive functions. Larger-scale studies are needed to confirm these findings.
A new study has shown that exceptional memory in older adults cannot be explained solely by a low genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease. Other biological, behavioral, and social factors also play an important role in maintaining cognitive health.
A new study has shown that even under deep anesthesia, the brain is still able to distinguish the meaning of heard words and analyze speech. These findings expand our understanding of unconscious perception and memory function.
American neurobiologists have demonstrated that artificially reproducing brain activity typical of sleep in awake mice can help restore memory without the need for full sleep. In the future, researchers plan to test this method on humans, but for now, it is not possible to completely replace sleep.
Details about the Surface Laptop 8 revealed ahead of the official announcement: new ARM-based Snapdragon X2 processors, OLED display, up to 32 GB of RAM, and up to 20 hours of battery life. Sales begin on June 16.
A new study has found that hidden internal stress accelerates memory loss in older Chinese Americans. Since this factor can potentially be addressed, researchers recommend developing culturally sensitive strategies to support emotional and cognitive health.
Long-term studies have shown that some people over the age of 80 maintain memory and mental sharpness at a level comparable to much younger individuals. Examining their brains and lifestyles helps us understand the mechanisms behind resilience to dementia and may lead to new strategies for preventing age-related cognitive decline.
Intel plans to raise prices on PC processors by about 10% due to increased costs of components, especially memory. This move could lead to higher end-user prices for devices.
Studies in Yellowstone Park have shown that ravens search for food by remembering locations where wolves have hunted successfully, rather than by following the predators themselves. These birds create mental maps of the area and deliberately return to promising spots.
A new study has shown that cannabis use can impair various types of memory, including the ability to accurately recall information and perform everyday tasks. Even moderate doses of THC are linked to memory errors and difficulties in identifying the source of acquired information.
Rising prices for memory cards and the limited internal storage of the Switch 2 are forcing users to buy fewer games and look for compromises. Analysts expect the memory market to stabilize no earlier than 2028.
Apple has introduced the M5 Pro and M5 Max processors for the new MacBook Pro, featuring more cores and support for up to 128 GB of memory. The company claims a significant boost in performance, especially for tasks involving ray tracing.
The shortage of the portable Steam Deck console has now reached Europe and Canada due to a lack of memory and storage components, caused by increased demand for parts used in artificial intelligence. At this time, it is still unclear when supplies will be restored.
Chinese scientists have developed the world's most compact ferroelectric transistor with a 1 nm gate, which reduces energy consumption during data transmission in artificial intelligence systems. The new device operates at low voltage and is compatible with industrial technologies, paving the way for more energy-efficient chips for AI and wearable devices.
