Researchers have identified a unique mitochondrial process in CA2 neurons that supports learning, memory, and social recognition.

Synaptic plasticity is the biological process by which specific patterns of synaptic activity result in changes in synaptic strength and is thought to contribute to learning and memory.

Virginia Tech neuroscientists have uncovered a mitochondrial process that supports the brain cells critical for learning, ...
