Fascinating theory that memory is refined and consolidated to a single neuron gradually and can be manipulated by genetic signals.
Recent research has shown that we may remember certain concepts, ideas, or people (such as "Bill Clinton" or "Jennifer Aniston" or my "grandmother") using a single neuron in the brain. In other words, our memories are not holistically (or holigraphically) spread across the brain, but may be stored in very specific locations. |
| If our mental concepts are stored all over the brain, it wouldn't be possible for our genes to exploit them. |
