In neurology studies, learning and memory have traditionally been recognised as two critical cognitive processes which are developing in the human brain. Learning involves all kinds of acquisition of information, while memory refers to the storing and recall of this information. The brain’s ability to learn and store information is a necessary function for survival, so it is no surprise that the neural networks responsible for learning and memory are complex and versatile. The hippocampus, a structure of the medial temporal lobe, is especially important in learning and memory. It is involved in the formation of newly acquired information into memories. It relies on the development of synaptic connections between neurons in which memories are encoded. The connections between neurons can be strengthened over time through various forms of repetition and practice, forming long-term memory. Genetic studies have also identified underlying molecular pathways that contribute to learning and memory. It is thought that various molecular mechanisms underly the formation and retrieval of new and existing memories. These mechanisms include the synthesis of neurotrophic factors that support neuronal survival and activity, while regulating the properties of synaptic plasticity. Neurotrophic factors may increase synaptic long-term potentiation, a form of synaptic plasticity in which the strength of a synaptic connection increases over time. In terms of practical application, neurological studies of learning and memory can provide greater insight into how the human brain works. This can help to improve treatment and interventions for a range of conditions from dementia to traumatic brain injury. By understanding how our brain encodes and stores information, we can learn how to best treat or prevent neurological disorders. Additionally, research can identify new ways to enhance learning and memory in healthy individuals, either for educational purposes or enhancing work performance.
