Two separate studies have identified age-related molecular changes in the brain and adjusted them to improve memory. New research from Virginia Tech (VA, USA) shows that memory loss is tied to ...

Restoring memory and mental sharpness in older adults isn't just about fighting disease; it's about decoding the subtle shifts inside the aging brain. Surprisingly, cognitive decline in healthy aging ...

Older adults with early memory problems who exercised regularly — whether through gentle stretching or brisk aerobic workouts — saw no cognitive decline over a 12-month period, according to new ...

A study published in Science Advances led by researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois, now provides evidence that the preservation ...

Mental exercises, including memory games, may help boost brain health by creating new brain cells and connections. Brain exercises are important throughout life, and perhaps even more so in older ...

Virginia Tech researchers have shown that memory loss in aging may be reversible. Using CRISPR tools, they corrected molecular disruptions in the hippocampus and amygdala, restoring memory in older ...

Here’s how to recognize memory loss, what causes it and how to manage issues for yourself or someone you love.

1. Write down what you observe. If you're noticing changes in your loved one's memory or changes in cognitive function (this is a fancy term for the way the brain thinks, remembers, processes ...
