Have you ever recalled a memory and wondered if it actually happened? It sounds like something from a science fiction film, but a team of neuroscientists from MIT have demonstrated an ability to implant false memories into mice brains. A study published today in Science reports the team's...
The familiarity of popular brand logos and brand names increases the memory of color, according to a study published in the journal PLOS ONE. Researchers from Japan conducted two experiments with a number of undergraduate and graduate students to determine whether the memorized color of objects...
New research published by an international team of psychologists has shown that people can suppress incriminating memories and thereby avoid detection in brain activity guilt detection tests. Such tests, which are commercially available in the USA and are used by law enforcement agencies in...
The era is long gone when a romantic breakup meant ripped-up photos and burned love letters. Today, digital photos and emails can be quickly deleted but the proliferation of social media has made forgetting a bigger chore.

Ben W. Strowbridge, PhD, Professor of Neurosciences and Physiology/Biophysics, and Robert A. Hyde, a fourth year MD/PhD student in the neurosciences graduate program at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, have discovered how to store diverse forms of artificial short-term...
Researchers at the University of California (UC), Berkeley, have discovered that during REM or the dream phase sleep, our body's stress chemistry shuts down while the brain processes emotional experiences and eases the pain in difficult memories. They suggest their findings, reported online...
Hello, I have Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories for PS2, and there isn't an official guide released for the PS2 version, but there IS one for the original GBA game. Is the remake close enough that it would help or is it really changed around?
"False memories tend to get a bad rap," says developmental psychologist Mark L. Howe, of Lancaster University in England. Indeed, remembering events incorrectly or remembering events that didn't happen can have grave consequences, such as the criminal conviction of an innocent person. "But false...
The brain learns through changes in the strength of its synapses - the connections between neurons - in response to stimuli. Now, in a discovery that challenges conventional wisdom on the brain mechanisms of learning, UCLA neuro-physicists have found there is an optimal brain "rhythm," or...
Can someone give me a thorough analysis of stanza 8. Who is the narrator referring to, talk about sentence structure and what are the connections to the other parts of the poem?
Also almost each line starts with "As I..." What's the meaning of this?
