  "textContent": "The brain may reuse some cells to store many different memories without mixing them up with or erasing older memories, a new study in mice suggests. Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the study revealed that about 1 in 4 memory cells in a brain area called the hippocampus acts as a shared \"hub\" that links incoming and outgoing signals. A report on the findings was published in the journal Nature.",
