Memory is essential in defining our identity by guiding behavior based on past experiences.
However, aging leads to declining memory, disrupting older adult's lives. Memories are …

Pupillary dynamics reflect effects of distinct and important operations of visual working
memory: encoding, maintenance, and prioritization. Here, we review how pupil size predicts …

Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) has been proposed to activate
the locus ceruleus-noradrenaline (LC-NA) system. However, previous studies failed to find …

Fluctuations in arousal, controlled by subcortical neuromodulatory systems, continuously
shape cortical state, with profound consequences for information processing. Yet, how …

Simple Summary Over the past few decades, advances in electroencephalography (EEG)
recordings and brain stimulation has permitted an unprecedented view of how specific brain …

Emotional events comprise our strongest and most valuable memories. Here we examined
how the brain prioritizes emotional information for storage using direct brain recording and …

Experimental evidence has implicated multiple neurotransmitter systems in either the direct
or indirect modulation of cortical arousal and attention circuitry. In this review, we selectively …

Background Dysfunction of the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic system occurs early in
Alzheimer's disease, contributing to cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms in some …

Abstract Changes in dopaminergic neuromodulation play a key role in adult memory
decline. Recent research has also implicated noradrenaline in sha** late-life memory …
