 Researchers Identify How We Store Information in Our Memory Photo by Milad Fakurian on Unsplash Our memories are rich in detail. We vividly remember things like the color of our house, the layout of our kitchen, and the front of our favorite cafe. How the brain encodes this information has  puzzled neuroscientists for years. In a new study conducted at Dartmouth College, researchers have identified the neural coding mechanisms that enable the transfer of information between sensory and  memory areas of the brain. The results will be published in Nature Neuroscience. Prior to this study, the classical understanding of brain organization was that the brain's perceptual regions represented the world "as it is," and that the brain's visual cortex "represented" the outside world based on how light hit the retina. It was expressed locally on the retina. In contrast,  the brain's memory areas were thought to represent information in an abstract form, without ...

The role of AI in drug development Photo by Christina Victoria Craft on Unsplash In a rapidly evolving medical environment, technological advances are changing the way we approach drug discovery and medical innovation. One of the most transformative forces is artificial intelligence (AI). There are many things that AI can affect in the field of medicine and health, some of which are: Accelerate the Development of Pharmaceuticals Traditionally, drug discovery has been a slow and expensive process, with researchers spending years identifying potential compounds and conducting extensive experiments. This is where AI comes in, with its ability to process large amounts of data at unprecedented speeds. Machine learning algorithms can analyze complex biological datasets, identify patterns, and predict potential drug candidates, significantly reducing the time needed for early-stage drug development. Target identification and verification AI plays a central role in drug target identification ...
