The journal focuses on Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Hippocampus, Memory consolidation and Hippocampal formation. The Neuroscience works featured in it incorporate elements from Synaptic plasticity, Long-term potentiation and Classical conditioning. The research on Long-term potentiation featured in it combines topics in other fields like NMDA receptor, Stimulation, Neurotransmission and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.
Learning & Memory features research on Classical conditioning in an attempt to reinforce studies in the field of Conditioning. The study of Conditioning encompasses disciplines such as Developmental psychology, as well as fields such as Audiology, all of which overlap with one another. The research on Cognitive psychology tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Stimulus (physiology), Visual perception and Cognition, Episodic memory.
In the journal, Anisomycin and Long-term memory are investigated in conjunction with one another to address concerns in Memory consolidation research. Hippocampal formation works presented in the journal have a specific focus on Dentate gyrus. The presented research on Fear conditioning deals specifically with Extinction (psychology) but it also addresses topics in Prefrontal cortex.
Neuroscience, Memory consolidation, Cognitive psychology, Hippocampus and Hippocampal formation are the main subjects of interest in the published articles. The most cited papers facilitate discussions on Neuroscience that incorporate concepts from other fields like Synaptic plasticity and Long-term potentiation. While Memory consolidation is the key highlight in the journal papers, thet also covered some subjects on Developmental psychology and Audiology.
The foci of the journal are Neuroscience, Cognitive psychology, Hippocampus, Hippocampal formation and Memory consolidation. Some problems in Neuroscience that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under Recall and Association (psychology). The studies on Cognitive psychology discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Object (computer science), Working memory and Curiosity.
Research in Episodic memory and the interrelating topic of Task engagement were among the subjects of interest in the Hippocampus studies discussed in it. The concepts on Hippocampal formation presented in the journal can also apply to other research fields, including NMDA receptor, Slow-wave sleep, Trace (semiology), Dorsum and Emotional arousal. The journal explores research in Sleep in non-human animals and overlapping concepts in Agonist and GABAA receptor to expand the discourse in Memory consolidation.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Learning & Memory (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Learning & Memory (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 0.00% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 22.00% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 2.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 28.00% of all publications and 48.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
For students and professionals interested in these research topics, there are numerous career paths to explore. One such path is becoming a Speech-Language Pathologist, a profession where many of these theories and research findings are applied directly to helping individuals overcome communication challenges.
A speech-language pathologist works with patients of all ages to diagnose and treat communication and swallowing disorders. Their work is influenced heavily by research in neuroscience, cognitive psychology, memory consolidation, and other related fields, such as classical conditioning and long-term potentiation.
To become a Speech-Language Pathologist, one must meet specific educational requirements, including a master's degree in speech-language pathology, and a comprehensive certification and licensing process. Each state has its unique requirements, for example, those considering pursuing a career in Texas can consult the texas slp license requirements for more detailed information.
The career of a speech-language pathologist is not only rewarding but also offers an opportunity for continuous learning, growth, and contribution to knowledge in the field.

(2020)For those interested in psychology, exploring related online degrees can open doors to diverse career pathways. Human services online program options provide a practical foundation for individuals wanting to support communities through counseling, case management, or social work roles. These programs are often designed for flexibility, allowing students to balance studies with personal and professional responsibilities.
Many psychology graduates consider making a career transition later in life. For example, educators looking to shift their focus may find valuable guidance in resources like career change for teachers, which outlines pathways to specialized roles such as speech-language pathology (SLP).
Pursuing speech pathology requires completing accredited speech pathology programs that meet rigorous standards, such as those set by ASHA. These programs ensure graduates are well-prepared to support individuals with communication disorders. Additionally, online bridge programs for non-SLP majors in fields like communication sciences allow students without a traditional background to enter the SLP profession.
Whether you aim to deepen your knowledge in psychology or pivot to allied health careers, exploring these related fields and programs online offers flexibility and accessibility to fit your goals and lifestyle.
