The interesting story that is the subject of this article starts with two young people who are doctoral students at MIT University in the USA in 2014; (Steve RAMINEZ is 24 years old and Xu LIU is 34 years old…) The aim of these two was to detect and isolate a brain cell carrying a single, specific memory, to see if this memory could be emptied and replaced with an artificial new memory…
Two young scientists Indeed, after isolating the cell in question, they patch the “electroshock eating memory” isolated from another mouse into this cell by patchclambing. Conclusion; Unbelievably, when this attached cell given to the mouse starts to do its job, the mouse begins to squirm like it was electroshocked one after another!
At the beginning of March 2015, experts at the National Center for Scientific Research in Paris ((Karim BENCHANANE and his team) determined where the mouse scrapes some marked places in the cage with the electrodes placed in the mouse brain. and, BINGO! As soon as the mouse wakes up, it finds the reward as if to put it with his hand…
These two studies herald a new field called OPTOGENETICS. This means that in a sense, the brain switches are found. The method is Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.
Boston University neurologist Howard EICHEBAUM and Canadian neurologist Seena JOSSELY have already started to test the method in areas such as depression and post-traumatic stress disorder…
In short, it is the memories that make a person a person. It has been proven once again that it is encoded in the form of certain protein sequences. This is the main argument of Franchis CRICK’s book titled “SURPRISING ASSUMPTION”.
However, in a study in the Department of Psychology at Northwest University in the USA, it was also shown that people INVENTED memories of events they had never experienced. So, in short, the mechanism by which these proteins trigger memories is actually a complex, variable mechanism. Memories are encoded in a particular type of protein. These proteins kick into action every time the moment comes to mind. (When these proteins disappear, the memory flies!)
Sometimes memories are corrupted. Because these proteins also undergo changes due to the polluting effect of time, imagination, beliefs, and the inability of the sense organs to function below and above the OPTIMAL.
We will cover a more comprehensive article on this subject in our next article.
