A recent study has found that cells outside the brain, previously thought not to be involved in memory, can also store memories. This challenges the traditional view that only brain cells are responsible for memory formation and opens up new possibilities for improving learning and treating memory-related conditions. The researchers focused on the massed-spaced effect, which shows that spaced study intervals enhance memory retention, to explore the role of non-brain cells in memory.
