Scientists have uncovered a surprisingly large reserve of “silent synapses” in the adult brain—unused neural connections that can be rapidly activated to store new memories.

Researchers identify the Munc13-1 protein as a crucial molecular pathway for working memory, linking calcium signaling to ...
