Is it a series of chemicals one creates overtime and stores in the brain? What exactly is being stored in your brain once you make a memory?
In: Biology
Memories are stored as links between neurons in your brain. Neurons are brain cells that send signals to other neurons. The number of neurons in your brain mostly stays the same over your life. But, the links between them is what changes when we learn or remember things.
The exact nature of how a memory gets encoded into links between neurons isn’t well understood though.
