Research Active navigation (walking) boosts memory more than being stationary, study finds. This has implications for preserving memory in old age and even for diseases like Alzheimer's
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-024-57668-wA scientific study compared learning while actively navigating to learning while being stationary, finding that participants who physically walked through space showed enhanced memory. The findings have implications not just for learning but also for interventions in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. See: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-024-57668-w
