How useful are memory forensic tools for detecting active attacks (considering current devices)

Are memory forensic tools useful for attack detection? Usually they are applied after an attack has happened. You could always constantly scan a machine but this requires lots of resources and depending on how often you scan leaves a windo… Continue reading How useful are memory forensic tools for detecting active attacks (considering current devices)

Ultrasound boosts memory of aging mice in Alzheimer’s study

Ultrasound may be a way to not just tackle brain plaques associated with Alzheimer's, but also age-related cognitive decline in the broader population

One promising possibility when it comes to treating Alzheimer’s is the idea of using non-invasive ultrasound to take out toxic brain plaques, and a group of researchers in Australia have been at the cutting edge of this technology for a number of years. The scientists’ latest investigations have uncovered some surprising new ways this technique can improve cognition in mouse models of the disease, which they believe could have wider implications for restoring cognition in the elderly.

First brain observations of faulty memory sheds light on Alzheimer’s

Scientists have used experiments on rats to identify specific patterns of brain cell activity that can relate to correct and incorrect memories

Through a new study on rodents, scientists have made first-of-a-kind observations of the brain mistakenly recalling a memory. The researchers were able to identify patterns of brain cell activation as mistakes were made during memory experiments, which the scientists believe lays the groundwork for understanding the mechanisms at play in memory disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease.
