@JamesMHarrison_ @niko_kukushkin @pgmid See https://t.co/N4QaSfczmo and https://t.co/P4KREBUwf8. You can prevent or erase the synaptic change induced by a learning episode, but the memory nonetheless is fully consolidated/persists. I think synaptic change expresses but does not store memory.

Nikolay,
First, congratulations on your study. It's quite interesting. Second, regarding my stance: I believe that memories are stored in the nucleus, by epigenetic or genomic mechanisms or both. Synapses do change during learning, but this change is not the mechanism of memory storage, at least not after the first few hours.

The fly connectome is not the fly's mind; it's simply the exoskeleton of the fly's mind.

“Mind uploading has been a science fiction, but now mind uploading — for a fly, at least — is becoming mainstream science,” Dr. Seung said.

@pgodfreysmith @GadgetHiker Being neither a sociologist nor an economist I don't have any useful insights into this phenomenon, but I would love it if someone with the necessary expertise would take an interest in it. 2/2

@pgodfreysmith @GadgetHiker I honestly don't know what's driving the change. But I strongly suspect it's related to the larger changes that are taking place within society, particularly the enormous disparities in wealth in Western societies. 1/

@aasok @doctorpoe Yes, I'm on, although Tweeting's not really my thing. Still stuck in the 20th century 😊

@sjo09 Thanks Sheena. ☺️
It's a fun meeting!

@gershbrain Will Aspirational Neuroscience give us $100K if we show that this cannot be done?

And Prof. Glanzman's paper "RNA from Trained Aplysia Can Induce an Epigenetic Engram for Long-Term Sensitization in Untrained Aplysia" has been the most read paper in @SfNJournals #eNeuro for several months. https://t.co/O3OmMBzLnf and #ResearchHighlight https://t.co/mWy3FszY3n

@michelleisawolf You were terrific—don't let the bastards get you down. Kellyanne (alt-facts) Conway, Sarah (huckster) Sanders, Sean (biggest crowd ever) Spicer—they lie and lie and lie as they help make American safe for Fascism. We should care that you hurt their feelings?
