		<description><![CDATA[The brain’s ability to learn and form memories of day-to-day facts and events depends on the hippocampus, a structure deep within the brain. But is the hippocampus still maintaining the memory of, say, the commencement address at your college graduation 20 years ago? The latest evidence suggests that as memories age, the hippocampus’s participation wanes.

		<description><![CDATA[Researchers at MIT&#8217;s Picower Institute for Learning and Memory conducted learning and memory tasks using transgenic mice that were induced to lose a significant number of brain cells. Following Alzheimer&#8217;s-like brain atrophy, the mice acted as though they did not remember tasks they had previously learned.  But after taking HDAC inhibitors, the mice regained their [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Why is it that once you learn something incorrectly (say, 7 X 9 = 65), it seems you never can correct your recall?
—J. Kruger, Cherry Hill, N.J.
Cognitive psychologist Gordon H. Bower of Stanford University answers:
Identifying, correcting and averting our memory errors are part of a cognitive process called memory monitoring. Incorrect associations can be tough [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Throughout the day you collect lots of miscellaneous facts.  Almost none of this gets put into long term memory until you sleep.  If your sleep too short, some of it gets left out of long term memory never to be heard from again.
Think of it like this: you have just thrown everything in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While a person sleeps, their brain is actually working very hard to consolidate everything they have learned that day so they can recall things from long term memory.  If a person&#8217;s sleep is interrupted, their ability to remember what they learned that day is seriously degraded.  So, pulling those all-nighters in college may have helped [...]]]></description>
