The discovery of neuronal systems dedicated to computing spatial information, composed of
functionally distinct cell types such as place and grid cells, combined with an extensive body …

This review examines the current evidence for a possible connection between nutritional
intake (including micronutrients and whole diet) and neurocognitive development in …

The structure of the brain is constantly changing from birth throughout the lifetime, meaning
that normal aging, free from dementia, is associated with structural brain changes. This …

Pattern separation, the ability to independently represent and store similar experiences, is a
crucial facet of episodic memory. Growing evidence suggests that the hippocampus …

In this review, we report on studies that have assessed the effects of exogenous and
endogenous increases in stress hormones on human cognitive performance. We first …

It is well established that healthy aging, amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI), and
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) are associated with substantial declines in episodic memory …

There is marked variability in both onset and rate of episodic-memory decline in aging.
Structural magnetic resonance imaging studies have revealed that the extent of age-related …

Memory decline in aging results from multiple factors that influence both executive function
and the medial temporal lobe memory system. In advanced aging, frontal-striatal systems …

Cognitive aging is a flourishing area of research. A significant amount of new data, a number
of new theoretical notions, and many new research issues have been generated in the past …

Deciphering the secret of successful aging depends on understanding the patterns and
biological underpinnings of cognitive and behavioral changes throughout adulthood. That …
