Scientists have found that blocking microglia (specialist immune cells in the brain) prevents infant forgetting ("infantile ...

Babies of every species from mouse to human rapidly forget things that happen to them-an effect called infantile amnesia.

According to the data, when microglia activity in the brain was suppressed, baby mice were better able to recall fearful experiences.

For a long time, neuroscientists treated this forgetting as a cognitive glitch or a simple lack of brainware maturity. But a ...
