A new study finds the hippocampus reorganizes memories to predict rewards. This discovery explains how the brain learns and why Alzheimer's affects decision-making.

A groundbreaking study identifies a "master switch" molecule, miR-181d, that controls the chaotic behavior of glioblastoma cells.

Researchers have discovered that the hippocampus isn't just for memory; it acts as a predictive model that shifts neural activity to anticipate rewards, providing new insights into Alzheimer’s.

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