Study reveals cells in kidneys and nerves can form memories, hinting at a whole-body memory system.
Researchers at New York University found that nerve and kidney cells can form memories similar to brain cells, suggesting a whole-body memory system. By exposing cells to chemical signals in a spaced-out pattern, they activated a gene linked to memory storage, indicating that memory formation isn't limited to the brain. This discovery could lead to new insights into health and learning techniques.
