Study shows kidney and nerve tissue cells learn and make memories in ways similar to neurons.

New York University's Nikolay V. Kukushkin says the ability to learn from spaced repetition isn't unique to brain cells, but, in fact, might be a fundamental property of all cells.

This discovery opens new pathways for understanding how memory works and could lead to better ways to enhance learning and treat memory-related afflictions.
