Age-related memory loss due to slowing of prefontal cortex neuron firing rate may be reversible. Continue reading
Structures Required for Brain Neuroplasticity Identified
Dendritic spines on neurons, key to learning and memory, require synapses to change their network connections either through new physical contacts with other neurons and or through changes in signal strength. Continue reading
Don’t Forget Your Vitamin D To Maintain Memory Fitness
Vitamin D has been linked to cognitive function in the hippocampus and cerebellum and should be taken supplementally to compensate for lack of adequate outdoor exposure in older adults. Continue reading
Stress Can Limit Neurogenesis And Reduce Memory Fitness

Heart Healthy Life-style Behaviors May Influence Alzheimer’s Risk
A study of middle aged adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment significantly reduced their risk of converting to Alzheimer’s with treatment for clogged arteries, a known risk factor for heart disease showing that lifestyle decisions impact memory fitness. Continue reading
Neuroplasticity Model Found for Synapse Enrichment in Memory and Learning
Environmental enrichment shows brain circuit remodeling and synaptogenesis are key to learning and memory— β-Adducin is critical for synaptogenesis during enhanced plasticity. Continue reading
Cause of Memory Impairment From Sleep Deprivation Found
Adenosine is a chemical released during sleep deprivation that results in cognitive deficits and memory impairment. Caffeine blocks its release and can mitigate the cognitive effects of sleep deprivation in many cases. Continue reading
Home-Based Cognitive Self-Assessment Program
As many of us grow older we begin to notice that our mental acuity is not the same as it was when we were young. As adults it sometimes seems that we are not as sharp or as focused. So … Continue reading
