EPFL researchers have combined virtual reality, non-invasive brain stimulation and advanced brain imaging techniques to improve spatial navigation in healthy participants. The study is a first step in ...

Combining virtual reality and non-invasive deep-brain electrical stimulation, researchers have improved healthy individuals’ spatial memory – the kind that helps you remember where you left the car ...

Researchers have joined forces to give a boost to spatial memory by creating a unique experimental setup that combines non-invasive deep-brain stimulation, virtual reality training, and fMRI imaging.

Certain cells in the brain create a nurturing environment, enhancing the health and resilience of their neighbors, while others promote stress and damage. Using spatial transcriptomics and AI, ...

Our thoughts are specified by our knowledge and plans, yet our cognition can also be fast and flexible in handling new information. How does the well-controlled and yet highly nimble nature of ...

Anyone who makes a habit of losing their keys has a new excuse: you didn’t forget — your memory just moved. That’s courtesy of neuroscientists at Northwestern University, who recently published a ...

As we age, it becomes more difficult to remember where things are—whether it’s recalling where we left the keys or where we parked the car. This spatial memory deteriorates further with the onset of ...
