Enjoy this great feature in @ScienceMagazine on infant amnesia, brain development and memory recall. Featuring research insights from #ListerFellow @TJRyan_77 and his lab @RyanLabTCD at @tcddublin. 👉 science.org/content/article/…

Are your earliest childhood memories still lurking in your mind—or gone forever?

Studies of “infantile amnesia” find that memory works differently in the developing brain

Do you work or study in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, computer science, artificial intelligence, or philosophy? What does 'representation' mean to you? We invite you to participate in a brief survey on conceptual questions across fields. eu.surveymonkey.com/r/VX9GNX…

Infantile #amnesia limits our recall of early-life memories, but what is its cellular basis? @erikasstewart from @RyanLabTCD & @tcddublin reveals that #microglia regulate infant memory retrieval in mice during postnatal development. @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4a0SoGH

Microglial activity during postnatal development is required for infantile amnesia in mice

Infantile amnesia limits recall of early-life memories, but its cellular basis is unclear. This study reveals that transient microglial activity during postnatal development regulates infant memory...
