How Quick Memories Are Formed
1:31:01 - 1:36:52 (05:51)
The process of forming very short-term memories or quick memories happens when silent synapses are converted into active synapses through synaptogenesis, according to a proposed theory. The theory posits that learning involves connecting to a group of cells rather than adjusting numerous weights in synapses.

The brain converts silent synapses into active synapses to form short-term memories, which can only become long-term memories through synaptogenesis or the formation of new synapses on the dendrite.
