The ability to reliably switch the direction of magnetic alignment in materials, a process known as magnetization switching, ...

We tend to think of memory as exclusively the brain’s domain, but new research suggests that this view may be far too narrow.

A research team led by Kyushu University has developed a new fabrication method for energy-efficient magnetic random-access ...

Researchers have demonstrated that the layered multiferroic material nickel iodide (NiI2) may be the best candidate yet for devices such as magnetic computer memory that are extremely fast and compact ...

Scientists at Monash University have created a tiny fluid-based chip that behaves like neural pathways of the brain, ...

Researchers have developed a new type of memory device that they say could reduce the energy consumption of artificial intelligence (AI) by at least 1,000. Called computational random-access memory ...

Memory is so much more than a storage unit in our minds. The people involved in memories influence what we recall and, as our study shows, the connections we make between memories. Our memory helps us ...

We often imagine that human consciousness is as simple as the input and output of electrical signals within a network of processing units — therefore comparable to a computer. The reality, however, is ...

In the world of Harry Potter, one’s memory can be manipulated with the flick of a wand. Albus Dumbledore reels wispy memories out of his head and puts them in a Pensieve. If he later dunks his head in ...

Growing older often comes with the expectation of memory loss. By age 80, the average person recalls far fewer words on standard memory tests than they did in middle age. Scientists long assumed this ...

In a new co-authored book, Professor and Chair of Psychology and Neuroscience Elizabeth A. Kensinger points out some surprising facts about how memories work Explaining the science behind memory and ...
