Memory and factors improving synaptic transmission
Journal Title: Progress in Health Sciences - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Memory is a process that encompasses three basic elements: encoding, consolidation and retrieval. The concept of multiple memory systems is now widely accepted. The question concerning the contribution of new neurons to learning has been recognized for a long time. There are also numerous associations between neurogenesis and learning. Experience-related changes that affect neurogenesis, such as stress or environmental enrichment, also affect learning. This paper also presents some methods of improving memory.
