Scientists identify a positive molecular feedback loop which could explain stroke-induced memory lossWhen we learn something new, our brain cells (neurons) communicate with each other through electrical and chemical signals. If the same group of neurons communicate together often, the connections between them get stronger. This process helps our brains learn and remember things and is known as long-term potentiation or LTP.

New molecular tool shows how telomeres relate to heart healthAs we age, our appearance changes, our hair turns gray and wrinkles appear. And we become more susceptible to disease. One reason for this is that our telomeres shorten. These are protective caps at the ends of the chromosomes, the carriers of our genetic material.
