Seemingly lost memories can be retrieved and updated by environmental cues 

The team designed tests to explore the idea that “forgetting” might not be a bad thing, and that it may represent a form of learning – and outline results that support their core idea.

Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Biosystems Dynamics Research (BDR) in Japan have shown that an animal’s stem cells possess the same level of cold resistance as the animal itself. Published August 17 in Cell Reports, the study focuses on mice with different hibernation-like characteristics, showing that those with the best resistance to cold temperatures have stems cells that generate energy differently than others. Beyond these immediate findings, the study establishes mouse stem cells as ...
