A new kind of memory device may finally solve the problem of overheating and battery drain in electronics. By shrinking ...

Scientists maximize the efficiency of hafnia-based ferroelectric memory devices. A research team led by Professor Jang-Sik Lee from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the ...

Long gone are the days where all our data could fit on a two-megabyte floppy disk. In today's information-based society, the increasing volume of information being handled demands that we switch to ...

There’s a paradox in memory science: Empirical evidence and life experience both suggest older adults have more knowledge of the world. However, in laboratory settings, they generally perform worse on ...

From the rhythm of your breath to the way neurons fire in sequence, science is uncovering the hidden patterns that shape how we learn and remember. Recent studies show our brains reorganize ...

Researchers have developed a new type of memory cell that can both store information and do high-speed, high-efficiency calculations. The memory cell enables users to run high-speed computations ...

Studying the U.S. Constitution can move beyond short-term memorization when paired with evidence-based learning strategies. Techniques like spaced repetition and active recall, combined with clear and ...

Anyone can improve their memory using a proven scientific method the ancient Greeks and Romans developed. The idea is to create a "memory palace." A group of researchers says training daily using an ...

The Science of Siblings is a new series exploring the ways our siblings can influence us, from our money and our mental health, all the way down to our very molecules. We'll be sharing these stories ...
