How do you think the brain "stores" our personal memories? 馃
This is a question for everyone out there, especially for non-neuroscientists and regardless of education level or familiarity with biology.
I'd just like to hear all your ideas and theories, however crazy they may sound. Be as specific or vague as you like. Please do not look at the answers before giving yours so you are not influenced.
More specifically:
- What do you think happens (in the brain) at the time of experiencing something that we will end up remembering?
- What do you think happens (in the brain) when, later, we remember that thing?
Boosts welcome but answers even more welcome!
