Today, I have forgotten my important office almirah key at home. I have left my car key at home. My mobile is missing because it was not there were actually I have kept it. I have put my headphone somewhere else. Yesterday, that important files, I kept here only to proceed further the next day but, I don’t know where I kept them. These are the common issues, faced by the majority of people every day.
Several studies prove that forgetting is the process of learning, by this, the brain reaches important information, and removes useless memories. Often we forget to keep the key or any paper or pay the bill for mobile etc. Scientists say that do not consider forgetting in youth as a disease or problem, it is also a process of learning. It helps the brain to access important information.
According to the study led by Trinity College in Dublin and the University of Toronto, this does not mean that the things that a person forgets will not be remembered again. Just the mind cannot reach them.
Researchers claim that the brain decides which
things we have to remember and which we can forget. Some memories are
permanently stored in bundles of neurons; they remain in the subconscious mind. That's
why a person never forgets these things. The brain decides which thing or memory
is more important for us and accordingly it keeps working to store and remove
memories.
We create countless memories throughout our lives, but only a few of them can be remembered. The common belief is that memories fade with time. But experts believe that the reason for this is the process of storing the brain. Neuroscientists Tomas Ryan at Trinity College and Paul Frankland of the University of Toronto told that the case of Alzheimer's patients is different. Forgetting can prove beneficial for ordinary people. This can help make the behavior more flexible and make better decisions.
The results of the study make it possible to restore memories lost due to illness. In the case of a disease like Alzheimer's, the process of forgetting is hijacked. Many experts say that the presence and return of memories depend on Engram Sales. “Memories are stored in the form of bundles of neurons. These are called engram cells.
The persistence or arrival of memories is due to the reactivation of these pieces. A person starts forgetting when the engram sales are not activated. It can be understood that memories are stored in a safe, but you do not remember the code to unlock them. The return of memories is also due to this reason.
