Summary
The human brain stores memories by converting sensory information into memory.

The parts of the brain which serve as information processors to create memories and store them include the prefrontal cortex, neocortex, basal ganglia, cerebellum, hippocampus, and amygdala.

Short-term memories are handled by the prefrontal lobe of the brain, and can be "translated" into long-term memories in the hippocampus.

Long-term memories are stored in the hippocampus and can be "moved" to the prefrontal lobe.

The hippocampus helps solidify that specific pattern of neurons, and the strength of the memory is going to depend on the connection between brain cells.

In the moment in which a memory is evoked, it is vulnerable to being changed.

Summary
The human brain contains circuitry that retrieves memories appropriate for the current situation. This circuitry spans long distances in the brain and supports a complex dialog between two brain structures. By revealing the details of the communications between brain regions to access appropriate memories, the findings may give clinical researchers clues about which communication channels may be impaired in brain disorders that disrupt memory.

Summary
The human brain stores memories by converting sensory information into memory. The parts of the brain which serve as information processors to create memories and store them include the prefrontal cortex, neocortex, basal ganglia, cerebellum, hippocampus, and amygdala. These different parts of the brain have different functions associated with various types of memories. The temporal lobe of the brain holds this small structure which holds an enormous list of function. This is crucial for the creation of long-term memories.
Memory Storage | Memory Processes In The Human Brain

Summary
• Short-term memories, like a chess move or a hotel room number, are processed in the front of the brain in a highly developed area called the pre-frontal lobe.
• Short-term recollection is translated into long-term memory in the hippocampus, an area in the deeper brain.
• The hippocampus helps to solidify the pattern of connections that form a memory, but the memory itself depends on the solidity of the connections between individual brain cells.
• Proteins and other chemicals are necessary to maintain the connections between brain cells and to communicate with one another.
• Scientists at NYU, the Medical College of Georgia and elsewhere have shown with experiments in animals that removing or changing just a single chemical or molecule can prevent the formation of memories, or even destroy memories that already exist.

Summary
• Memory is not just a recollection of events, it is also encoded in the brain in different ways.
• Working memory (like when you are holding a few numbers in your head) is stored by keeping active neural circuits that encode the remembered items.
• Long-term memories involve more structural changes in the brain, and can be retrieved by activating the associated neurons.
• In the moment in which a memory is evoked, it is vulnerable to being changed.

Summary
• The human brain can store a vast amount of memories, both short-term and long-term.
• Short-term memories are handled by the prefrontal lobe of the brain, and can be "translated" into long-term memories in the hippocampus.
• Long-term memories are stored in the hippocampus and can be "moved" to the prefrontal lobe.
• The hippocampus helps solidify that specific pattern of neurons, and the strength of the memory is going to depend on the connection between brain cells.
