Learning and Memory, the inspiring exam!

…was preparing for an interesting EXAM about learning and memory this week, and had used my learning and memory ability at max! ..also was thinking and curious too, about how our learning and memory work? Perhaps, should ask how our brain does? Our brain simply never stop learning and memory.. unless we do (another issue). That’s how we know the how-to, the what-to, and the why.. in study and work, playing sports, making friends, traveling around, clubbing, car drifting, blogging and many routine or extraordinary activities; as well as even for understanding of the nature and universe (this is too much). Furthermore, this is how we store tonne of information about anything we came across with, in books, movies, music lyrics, history, news, and even the feeling when we meeting girlfriend(s), or enjoying time with friends and family in a holiday; as well as in cultivating our habits like alcohol drinking, smoking, and also the healthier one such as reading, sleep and wake up early..

When something goes wrong with this, learning disability or memory loss, we may not know who we met, LOVE or what we knew about before, or we may not even able to remember what we just did 5 minutes ago every time.. Although, can delete the old unpleasant memories, however, we need learning and memory. Yes, this is learning and memory.. but how it happens? Neuroscientists believe, it is the trillion of little cells, of different types, at different region of the brain, with ‘their’ tiny molecules, in ‘their’ dynamic activities, that makes this complex, flexible yet sometimes rigid learning and memory ability of our brain.. can ‘they’? ..also in monkey, in dog, in mice, in fly, in snail (the quite recent important break-through!), in fish(?).. How ‘they’ do then? These are the scopes of question that really tested me out, in the recent inspiring EXAM about learning and memory. Don’t ask me..
