How real is supermemory

In the early 20th century in the textbooks on psychology could meet the definition of that memory - the property of the soul. Previously, all the scientific world shared the concept of the brain, mind and soul. Now science is almost certainly talking about the mind and the brain as a single whole, leaving aside the unknown soul.

People at all times considered themselves the most intelligent and research, and in the early 20th century, used cocaine as a remedy for toothache. Most likely, in 50-100 years, on our current opinions people will be judged as an arrogant fool. And after 100 years will be about the same and think about the future generation towards us. The truth about the brain will change constantly, because it is not an exact science.

We live and we see only a small segment of the development of science and do not know what lies ahead. Therefore, the information in this release is current data for this time, but something tells me that this information will remain for a long time.

Short-term and long-term memory
The first was Ebbinghaus, he proved in part, that the memory is fickle and divided into regular intervals. Being on a conditional line, where the starting point of the event itself, and then the time line. Ebbinghaus split line on the 2 conditional periods: short-term memory, where "I remember a lot," and the long-term, where the memory is weakened.

Then 2 German Muller and Piltseker found that when a person is to challenge, immediately after his stop learning, then he does not remember anything. But if it is done within 20 minutes of forgetting occurs. This distinction is held still, the memory of the short-term to long formed for 15-20 minutes. If a person comes great stress: shock, concussion, concussion - that he is either bad, or do not remember the last minutes before the stress. It is scientifically proven.

Carl Danton subjected to serious stress mice, he beats shock, caused convulsions, hope only for the sake of science. He proved similar processes in animals, the same 15-20 minutes. It turned out that this gap connects so many animals with short and long-term memory.

Holger Hiden was more humane, and taught the mice to run on the rope, to get food from the feeders. In short I forced them to strain your brain and learning skills. Cool guy in our theme) Hiden discovered bursts the synthesis of RNA and protein in the creation of teaching moments. Mice, literally, "shaking their brains", but thin, not inflating the skull as a conventional swing skeletal muscles.

Further logic again, so let's introduce them to a temporary inhibitor of RNA synthesis, the animals studied, and the proteins were not created. Introduced, created the conditions for the training, the protein is not created, the mouse study. But what garbage - they remember everything ... for 15 minutes! And then the utter forgetfulness forever. It turned out that RNA synthesis will love involved in long-term memory. This, comrades, is already the future! As in the movie "Men in Black", you are representing that you can delete a piece of the latest developments for all, if you enter the creation of RNA inhibitor. Scope - thousands: the consequences of military clashes with all the horrors, trauma, etc. On the other hand, if the bit to enhance the creation of proteins, RNA synthesis - the memory will be better. And this data is the second half of the 20th century!

Now, the best minds to dig even deeper this issue, highlighting the different parts of the brain, where the proteins are better or worse, breaking forms of memory: visual, auditory, tactile, skills or memory of the past, events. Eric Kendel in 2000 received the Nobel Prize for finding the learning process chain leading from the membrane of the cell nucleus to the genome. Genome - a database of DNA and RNA, which stores various information about the human ancestors, hereditary information. In practice, this means that many diseases are associated with impairment of intelligence are innate and acquired in the first months of life.

Next it was clarified specific proteins that are involved in memory and learning - Neurotrophins. A neurotransmitter glutamate receptors is a "dam" which is passed over the activated state "water" or nerve impulses in the brain. Discovery is becoming more and more, but one thing is for sure: the memory - it is a process, not a place. Now in general there is a promising idea that any violation of the memory can be restored.

To improve memory use – Semax, Phenotropil, Cogitum, Gliatilin and Noopept.

Imagine a path in the woods, which often go by, it is flat, rather broad and trampled. It has no branches and no grass grows. But the fallen tree, and all of its starting to crawl. It has been rain - pools, the new changes. Ultimately, about this trail forget. But if there are a few years pass, some fragments will be visible. And they can reunite. Our memory - is including a chain of neurons in the brain pathway. We can forget it, but it should always be in the brain, and when re-start "to remember" read an old favorite book, watch a movie, go out for his native land - it will return the emotions and "cleanse the overgrown path in the head." However, inevitably there will be distortion, this will be the next release.

Now experts are increasingly convinced that man never forgets anything, and memory problems - these are problems with access to it, rather than its "removal".

Memory Formation
Thus, the memory associated with such words as "long-term potentiation", "RNA synthesis", "Acetylcholine" and "neurotrophins". These items are worthy of individual plots. Briefly and clearly go over these words:

• 1.Long-term potentiation. Who looks for a long time this channel - should remember glutamate, AMPA and NMDA receptors. Their essence: if you want a good memory - are actively something to learn and repeat, preferably at low stress. So there is a long-term potentiation.
• 2.Synthesis of RNA. The primary function of RNA - the transfer of genetic information from DNA to the ribosomes. Recent build protein compounds. This is the theory of memory as a physical element, or rather the protein. And the better the synthesis of RNA takes place, the better it is cost protein, especially as it is more room for storage.
• 3.Acetylcholine. This reason neurotransmitter present in large quantities in people with high IQ, and vice versa. Clearly, this is a conditional tool for assessing intelligence, but still. Acetylcholine is functioning very poorly in patients with Alzheimer's who are suffering from serious memory lapses. The logic can be traced clearly acetylcholine undoubtedly somehow involved in the processes of memory and intelligence in general.
• 4.Neurotrophins. Old-subscribers nootrop-addicts it should also be remembered. Neurotrophins - a protein compounds, which "build, develop" neurons, the brain cells. Are involved in the "life extension" of old neurons and even branching relationships with others. Something like a broadband connection. Neurotrophins and perform other functions, such as a connection to their lowest levels in depressed patients.
