Maternal Memory and Lived Time

Efficient Memory Management for Long-Lived Objects

Generational garbage collectors perform well for short-lived objects, but do not deal well with long-lived objects. Existing techniques for long-lived objects, such as pretenuring, eliminate work in the nursery; however, the collector still needs to deal with the long-lived objects in the older generations. We introduce a novel scheme employing regions that avoids both nursery and old generatio...

Long-lived qubit memory using atomic ions.

We demonstrate experimentally a robust quantum memory using a magnetic-field-independent hyperfine transition in 9Be+ atomic ion qubits at a magnetic field B approximately = 0.01194 T. We observe that the single physical qubit memory coherence time is greater than 10 s, an improvement of approximately 5 orders of magnitude from previous experiments with 9Be+. We also observe long coherence time...

Dicer Regulates the Balance of Short-Lived Effector and Long-Lived Memory CD8 T Cell Lineages

MicroRNAs constitute a major post-transcriptional mechanism for controlling protein expression, and are emerging as key regulators during T cell development and function. Recent reports of augmented CD8 T cell activation and effector differentiation, and aberrant migratory properties upon ablation of Dicer/miRNAs in naïve cells have established a regulatory role of miRNAs during priming. Whethe...

Maternal feeding with walnuts (Juglans regia) improves learning and memory in their adult pups

Objective: Walnut (Juglans Regia) is a domestic fruit of Iran. Walnut kernel (WK) has many beneficial constituents such as unsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamin E. Scientific studies have shown that fatty acids and vitamin E can modulate learning and memory processes. The aim of the present work was to study effects of walnut consumption by mothers during pregnancy and lactation on...
