The latest breakthroughs, innovations, and cool happenings at the cutting edge of the world of cognitive science. Updated daily.
Imagine you’re a chef trying out new recipes. Sometimes, a pinch of salt is all you need to enhance the flavor. Similarly, scientists are finding that by precisely stimulating specific brain regions, they can improve clinical outcomes. In a cutting-edge technique called targeted neuroplasticity, invasive neuromodulation therapies are used to rewire the brain in a […]
Several decades of research shows that sleep plays an important role in memory consolidation, the process by which short-term memory is strengthened and integrated into long-term memory networks. Memory reactivations (see Glossary, also often referred to as neural replay), whereby newly formed memory traces become spontaneously active again after encoding, have been proposed as one […]
Imagine you have a trusty recipe that has stood the test of time. It may seem old-fashioned, but it still gets the job done! Well, that’s how the grammatical paradigm is. In the past, it was THE model for cognitive science, a guiding principle that emphasized axiomatic-like systems and quick testing through introspective judgments. And […]
