What Learning Looks Like in the Brain

Показать описание
Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine have successfully used a laser-assisted imaging tool to “see” what happens in brain cells of mice learning to reach out and grab a pellet of food. Their experiments, they say, add to evidence that such motor-based learning can occur in multiple areas of the brain, even ones not typically associated with motor control. The research team focused on AMPA-type glutamate receptors, or AMPARs, key molecules that help send messages between brain cells called neurons. #AMPARs function like antennas that form along the surface of a particular spot on neurons called a synapse, where it receives molecular signals from other neurons. Scientists have ways to directly view the brain during learning, recording thousands of synapses at a time. The movie shows AMPA receptors in green on neurons in magenta at one time point in a live mouse. #JohnsHopkinsResearch

It's spinning that much i don't see anything happening at all, just still neurons, definitly don't know any more about what learning looks like in a brain.

Could we use a brain computer interface to induce learning

Learning actually activates parts of the brain which handle pain, so learning causes pain

It looks like a part of a Forrest but the wood is pink

Honestly and with the most
Respect I could possibly give look for me
You'll know me when you see me...
I love science and I'm ready.
Love.x.

I learned nothing from this. I am sure with some color legends I could learn at least something.
