Memory patterns in visual brain regions weakened with age

An observational study of 115 adults aged 25–87 found weaker visual memory patterns with older age, but stronger patterns elsewhere while people held information in mind.An observational study of 115 adults aged 25–87 found weaker visual memory patterns with older age, but stronger patterns elsewhere while people held information in mind.
