- How does my brain store memories again?? Great question! There are a lot of questions about how memories are stored and where they go. But when we have a test coming up, it might be useful to learn how to remember what you studied! So find out more about the neuroscience of memory with Alie Astrocyte!

I will remember this video.
Store it in your long-term memory! 😝
Me too
I just reminded you by replying to your comment, so do you remember!?
GOOD do it to your scholl
@@neurotransmissions 😂😂😂lol
Do we have any idea how memories work computationally? I know there's a lot of progress being made in the field of connectomics but, from a logical point of view, do we know what the neural circuitry for a memory looks like?
I'm learning about memory in psychology currently. My teacher actually shared this video because it explains what we are learning really well!!
I've always found the case of H.M. an interesting one. I also find it crazy how much we know about memory, but also how little. There are still so many questions to be answered, but we're definitely getting closer to knowing even more!
Excellent video!! Keep up the great work!
It's impossible for the brain to act as the storehouse of memories. There's absolutely no retention of the signals propagated by the neurons. A depolarisation is immediately followed by a repolarisation (in milliseconds) thus rendering even working memory impossible.
I didn't know we knew that much about memories. I thought it was one of those mysterious things we still know barely anything about, so this vid was really cool :)
Also, your videos are really visually pleasant. They remind me a lot of braincraft with the bright colors and fun vibe :)
Awww, thanks!
Me too .. didint think we have any information about memory storage .. great video .
A lot of "seems like" & "probably" in this vid
This makes me think of the HUGE gap on what we know about the brain and mind, very interesting :) thank you for sharing.
Just subscribed too!
3:30 Dentate gyrus is actually the part of the brain that generate around 1500 new neurons everyday, very few compared to the total amount of neurons in the brain.
Excellent, easy to understand, and engaging content. Thank you! Now if I can only remember the details to share with others.
Awesome, been wandering for about neurons and how memory formation but your short video tied everything in a clear and logical way, Can't wait to watch all your channel, great work !!
What an amazing video, could you please explain Hebb's law?
Thanks so much! We will add your suggestion to our list!
Thanks for sharing...It was helpful ..I understood better about this topic after watching ur video
I had the exact theory that receptors increase due to increased exposure but, mine had something a bit different and was wondering if anyone had any more information on the topic. So my theory went that as more of one neurotransmitter was sent through a synapse the receptors would become more sensitive to that exact neurotransmitter. So say if one neuron always sends dopamine to a neighboring neurons dendrites, those dendrites would become more sensitive to dopamine and less sensitive to other neurotransmitters, forming a sort of physical memory. What’s your thought?
Great explanation. Thank you very much prof.
Memories are stored in the balls
these big irish balls
What about females?
Thank you professor
I love all your videos please can you add some more videos and this channel should have more than 20m subscribers and I have a lot of questions. What is your name , how does it store and I will remember this video ??????
Some people (like in this video) already act like they know the answers, at the same time memory is still one of science’s greatest mysteries. Planarian flatworms can regenerate an entire new brain (along with the rest of the head) from their tails. Somehow they still retain old memories. How can a worm remember things after losing its head?
I agree about people, who act like they know the answers) and about mystery. but worms may be not an argument. they have neuro path from head to tail. they don't have "brain". and their motor and habit memory can store in the tail too.
vulcanus30 isnt the reason they can retain memories after being decapitated is because they dont retain memories in their brain, but rather in their other part of nerve system?
Flatworms do have a brain.
to Alfian... Possibly yes, but so far this is just a hypothesis.
ha elie that you I miss your videos no time no see hahaha I learn a lot about science to you than my teacher am very excited for the next video you upload
As a creative professional I make my living by being inspired. For me the moment of inspiration occurs like a reverse memory. Instead of flooding into my mind from some past experience, it feels as if it’s flooding in from the future. I wonder if it’s the same fundamental neuro-mechanism of neurons firing together wiring together. There are lots of videos and research on learning and neuro-plasticity, but not much on inspiration, creativity, lateral-thinking and neuro-plasticity.
I guess it will take many decades or centuries for practical methods to be developed that could help, say, learn language quickly or learn a lot of facts for good in a short space of time. I would love to be able to apply those techniques.
Excellent video. Learning a lot. Thank you so much. But can you slow down a little bit so that it's more easy to follow? Thank you. God bless you!
Where is it stored in Brain and if we Somehow Do Brain Transplant will It Transfer Your memory your Consciousness Your Uniqueness Of who you are your ?
I’ve watched a few of your videos & I’ve been able to learn a fair bit from them & they’re great at explaining everything but this video in particular, around maybe 4:00, I can understand it but it’s just a bit harder to comprehend, maybe because I’m tried & maybe because memory itself is a stressor to me bc I don’t remember things well, even though I really need to.
But even going over the video a few times, it hasn’t been as easy to understand as the rest of your videos?
I love these videos, don’t get me wrong- just wanted to point this out :-)
In a synapse, when the preynaptic neuron fires frequently to send neurotransmitters to the postsynaptic neuron, the postsynaptic neuron will develop more receptors. This makes the postsynaptic neuron more susceptible to the neurotransmitters sent by the presynaptic neuron.
In other words, a stronger connection is built between the two neurons to increase efficacy of communication.
Dont give general info...tell me where it is stored ?
thank for helping me for my speech
This may be dumb but how sure are we that all memories are stored in the brain? Also, how can you explain like how I can remember particular events from when I was 4 yrs old but I forget what I did last night so easily.
thank u so much. learn something from u.. again thank u so much..... this video is awesome.. and way of explanation is too good.
Amazing video as always ! With all your videos' high production value I am astounded you guys don't have 100x more subscribers and views after so many years of hard work!
Wow, thanks for the kind words! We just like making interesting stuff! Nothing more to it than that. And it's fun to make stuff with all these other cool creators! 😉
@@neurotransmissions Well Mission Accomplished! :)
So apart from stroke what can cause a memory problem like Anomic aphasia? Mid sentence forgetting a word you have known your whole life. It's like you can feel the word is there, but you can't get to it. You end up having to describe the word. For example, using the cold cupboard when the word fridge wouldn't come.
Ooo, that is a good question. We will have to look into that a little more, but it sounds like a great video topic! I hate it when that happens to me!
I have had an aneurysm years ago and this is the exact thing i have now.
I can remember most things in the past but i have to write everything down that is happening in a timeframe of, say, a day.
You get used to it:)
Try searching Shambhavi Mudra... a yoga technique.. you’ll find some answers
Your videos are so awesome! I learnt a lot from this one :)
Thanks Daniel! Now if only we could figure out how to retain everything we learn. 😝
At 4:35, are you implying that retrograde signalling plays a role in LTP?
This didn't clarify much. Memory is stored as what? signals? binary? electricity? liquid?
While we may be able to identify the neural activity in different parts of the brain, it only indicates correlates of memory function. It cannot be said for sure that the part physically stores memory. It could be an activity of saving of information or retrieval of past information. It is quite possible that the brain only uses some technique to generate and recall pertinent information and the data is stored elsewhere, could be in the environment..!!
There is a fundamental difference between information flowing through a network and storage and retrieval of information on said network. This explanation failed to address this.
Is there a part of me that is listening even if I'm doing other things? Because I can't remember any part of this video.
Thank you so much this explains a lot.
What a voice!
Where are memories stored? I couldn't understand. Henry's accident made him impossible to use its brain. Information is not physical, I don't think it is saved in the physique.
Claudia Frisancho whats your take on how information is retrieved/remembered
@@eilenevuong3019 yeah, I'm interested what metaphysical explanation it has this time
hey great video! I've just cited your video for my cognitive essay :)
Before i watch this video,please do not refer to the humans brain data capacity as the same as watching tv shows......Thank you this very well informed...
is memory also can be non localize?
Memories are the key of the “consicousness transfer” but firstly, everyone should face the trurh; we are just the colony of living objects. I dont know how to explain my opinions about it. its like... its like we are not exist but we actually are... nevermind I do not know anything about neurology Im a 16 years old high school brat.
You mean that an individual consciousness doesn't exist, right? That what makes us "conscious" is just part of the universe and does not belong to us only. So we, as an individual person don't exist. Was that correct?
i love you.. just keep vlogging about neuroscience love
Im interested to be a psychologist.
If that is your calling, you should definitely go for it!
Cari This is Neuroscience not Psychology btw
Thank you!
JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR !!!!!!! TANXXXXX !!!!
So what part of my brain is responsible if I'm having difficulty remembering an entire conversation during intense conflict?
Thankyou ❤️
Please guide me I am suffering from sexual intrusive thoughts OCD everyone I see something listen something it feels like erection has taken place breathing also become irregular when thoughts comes in my mind irrelevant thought which has no meaning pops up in my mind I have heard OCD is a chronic illness is that true will I be normal again ☹️
Go to therapy that is for helping OCD and being mindful
@@milaniearae u are absolutely right milaniea
@@versatilehumanbeing6013 Did you end up getting therapy for ocd? If you have how long until you seen results. I have just started OCD therapy and meds for it and the meds have worked really well I don't find myself obsessing over things as much and am able to just let it go! I don't think its a life long illness because there was a time before I had symptoms and I believe there will be a time when I dont have symptoms
@@milaniearae i have also seen slight improvement i am on 2 SSRIs along with an anti psychotic sometimes i drink and regret the next day its really coming in between my recovery but i will fucking leave this habit therapy i am seeking from a therapist cbt one
@@versatilehumanbeing6013 ah good! Yeah I use substances recreationally and I notice that the next day is hell and same with drinking feels good while your doing it but then after it messes with my head
awesome thanks.
You bet!
yes but for daily life it is not always godd to keep so many memories.
Ernest Stuff 👍
nice interesting ep
Thanks a lot!
Great review of memory in the brain. (Brain's are weird - AND SO COOL!) :)
Indeed!
people can have accidents and so on. they do not want to remember than later.
Why am I a bit sceptical about about the explanation of where and how memories are stored? I think it's because there are an infinite amount of possible things to remember.and yet the brain is not infinite. It's just neurons firing against another, something else is going on that we don't know about but I can't guess what. It's weird.
It’s just a burning memory
Hello!
Please, someone would be so kind to put subtitles in Spanish. Thank you very much. Por favor, alguien seria tan amable de poner subtitulos en español. Muchas gracias
Normal people won't understand without visualization

I think memories are stored at a much deeper level than neurons and their connections.
Why?
Agreed why
It's impossible for the brain to act as the storehouse of memories. There's absolutely no retention of the signals propagated by the neurons. A depolarisation is immediately followed by a repolarisation (in milliseconds) thus rendering even working memory impossible.
So basically she said that memory's are electrons moving through neurons, it seems unlikely.
Not electrons, actually. They're called "neurotransmitters", and they send signals between synapses all around the brain! It's really fascinating.
And it isn't unlikely! There are tons of studies on this, but this is really only one theory based on what was discovered. It is definitely not fact, but it isn't fiction and could be one way memories are stored, but we don't know for sure. Anything could be possible, and only time will tell! :)
@@AngrySpongeCraft but if you consider neurotransmitters, then that particular thing is anyway transmitting from one neuron to other right? it doesnt trnasmit only when memories are created or something like that.
well don't quote me wrong, am not from medical side. am professionally an engineer (computer scince) but self learning neurosience and stuff like that
@@manishjadhav6685 They travel between the synapses. They form when memories are created and when something triggers a memory (such as a specific smell), then they’ll send the memory to it.
Again, This is only theory of why memories are created. There’s thousands of others, and no one way is confirmed to be the reason.
YOU GO ELLLLLYY!!! :PPP
Actually, memory is stored in Consciousness. Just ask anyone who has had a near death experience. And since Consciousness is eternal, so are memories - even if the brain is unable to process them.
Sadly, many psychological breakthroughs come from highly unethical experiments. Do you think psychology could have made the same progress without those unfortunate experimental subjects?
So true. There have been a lot of unethical experiments made in the name of science. Some of them had malicious intent. Those are absolutely unacceptable, despite their contributions. Some experiments may have fallen within the ethical guidelines of the time, but would not be considered ethical today. They may be the result of not having enough information and would now be considered unethical. In this video, we talked about H.M. and his extreme surgery. Knowing what we know today, that sort of surgery would not be recommended. However, the contribution to science is huge. I am not sure where psychology would be without these experimental subjects. However, I do know that psychology gets better and more ethical every year as a direct result of experiments like these.
+LUSCID Agreed. I'd prefer scientist experiment on human conservatives and NOT on nonconsenting animals.
Of course, there exists ZERO logical reason to NOT make use of any & all knowledge gained from these experiments, because not making use of that knowledge does nothing to go back in time & prevent the experiment.
The Ultimate Reductionist: How Progressive of you. You and Hitler have something in common.
Regarding non-consenting animals. I don't know of any animals that signed up to be meat, or any type of experiment. Better work on that Ultimate thingy.
Rock Anderson wtf?? Where are your arguments against him ? Why wouldn’t be what he said true ? :/
thx :D
So beautiful
somebody give her a shirt atleast!

Thank you, I kinda got it, but how can you compare our brain to mice brain , we're alot smarter.
We who reads "back to school" in 2021 : 😂
🥰
their is no read write mechanism in synapse function. all of this is done inside the cell. when one is stimulated a whole word or movie star is remembered proving synapse connection pattern has nothing to do with memory also it is just not possible that it does. your memory is encoded with in numbers digitaly as your neuron can be trained to replicate time interval when separated from everything it is a memory number storing computing device connected to others for functional reasons that have nothing to do with the memory in storage. where read/ right is possible. synaptic pattern is where this is not possible. this is the most humiliation possible for so many scientists. this is just so much fun for an intelligent person. all of the opportunity in the field of the brain because your professors are spectacularly wrong. history of the world class chance for you to win the biggest science prize.

Memories are not stored in the brain. They never have or will identify memories in the brain. Just like how a radio is not the source of music.
This is amazing but it is not what I want.
Nah, it's proben people can learn even without memory.
0:40 for desperate people
The host is cute af
... when it comes to explaining this, the explanation itself seems to be so primitive ... !!! ... meaning ... nobody knows anything ... !!!
Oh my gosh why would she get that hair cut 😢
Coldwelth Simms Why would you make this comment?
Whenever anyone cuts there hair, I feel like they chopped their arm off or something 😅
Sit back please. My back hurts watching you like this. :( It's also unhealthy.
no
