The Real-World What-Where-When memory test is a novel episodic memory test, in which participants need to recall which objects have been hidden in which locations on which of two distinct occasions. It is easy to run and is sensitive to normal cognitive aging.

Memory Development: Demonstrating How Repeated Questioning Leads to False Memories

Source: Laboratories of Judith Danovitch and Nicholaus Noles—University of Louisville A person is defined as a unique individual based on the people and events they encounter in their lives. Thus, creating, storing, and recalling memories are essential elements of the human experience. However, memory, as adults experience it, takes time to develop. Although young children can learn facts and remember details of their lives from moment-to-moment and day-to-day, they do not create...

An Introduction to Learning and Memory
0 Views •
2023
Learning is the process of acquiring new information and memory is the retention or storage of that information. Different types of learning, such as non-associative and associative learning, and different types of memory, such as long-term and short-term memory, have been associated with human behaviors. Studying these components in detail helps behavioral scientists understand the neural mechanisms behind these two complex phenomena. JoVE's overview on learning and memory introduces common...

Here we present a protocol for characterizing monocyte subsets by whole blood flow cytometry. This includes outlining how to gate the subsets and assess their expression of surface markers and giving an example of the assessment of the expression of M1 (inflammatory) and M2 markers (anti-inflammatory).

Working memory predicts a significant amount of variance for a variety of cognitive tasks, including speaking, reading, and writing. However, few tools are available to assess working memory in children. We present an innovative, computer-based battery that comprehensively assesses different components of working memory in school-age children.
FAQs
Surface-marker profiles provide a way to distinguish memory populations, while functional measurements show what those cells can do after stimulation. Differences in cytokine production and proliferative capacity help separate subsets that may look similar by phenotype alone. Combining both types of evidence makes the comparison more informative for interpreting durable cellular immunity.
Central memory, effector memory, and tissue-resident memory cells are compared through trafficking, proliferation, cytokine production, and tissue localization. Central and effector categories can therefore be interpreted through differing movement and response characteristics, whereas tissue-resident populations are examined in relation to their localization. This comparison clarifies how prior antigen exposure supports different patterns of immune readiness.
These features connect the identity of a memory-cell population with its potential behavior in an immune response. Trafficking and localization indicate where cells may be found, while proliferation and cytokine production describe response capacity. Considering them together helps researchers interpret whether distinct subsets contribute differently to protection, persistent immune activity, or dysfunction.
Investigators combine measurements of multiple surface-marker profiles with functional measurements in a coordinated analytical framework, often using multiparameter flow cytometry. The resulting comparison helps identify distinct long-lived immune-cell populations and relate their phenotype to proliferation, cytokine production, trafficking, or localization. This approach provides a broader view than relying on a single cellular feature.
It can reveal how infections and vaccines shape cellular immunity by comparing the memory populations they leave behind. Researchers can examine differences in subset composition alongside functional features such as proliferation and cytokine production, then relate those patterns to durable immune protection. The comparison is especially relevant when evaluating whether an exposure produces lasting, functionally distinct cellular responses.
By resolving memory populations and their functional characteristics, the analysis provides a way to study whether cellular immunity remains durable, changes during chronic disease, or differs in contexts involving reinfection. It also supplies evidence for vaccine design by showing how exposure shapes subset profiles and immune function. These findings connect cellular measurements with broader questions of protection and dysfunction.
