A team of scientists has unveiled how the hippocampus orchestrates multiple memory processes, including encoding new information, forming memories, and retrieving them.

The information-processing framework emphasizes encoding, storage, and retrieval of information. In this framework, memory only works when our retrieval efforts align with how we originally ...

Analog notebook use activates multiple brain regions associated with optimal memory-encoding (and subsequent retrieval) more robustly than using digital devices, the researchers found.

DNA’s high density, stability, and longevity enable efficient data encoding, processing, and retrieval while requiring minimal space.
