Study in Science Advances identifies KIBRA molecule as a memory stabilizer, offering insights into long-term memory formation.

A new study in Science Advances reveals a biological basis for long-term memories, identifying a molecule called KIBRA that acts as a "glue" for other molecules, stabilizing memory formation. The discovery provides insights into how our memories last a lifetime, with researchers explaining that understanding how molecules work together to store memories will aid efforts to address memory-related conditions.
