Nooflex
This is not observed after the surgery So it is necessary to assume that the memory stored in the neighboring health tissue is also replicated in other parts of the brain This raises a question: how does the brain know how much health tissue is going to be taken out? If the brain does not know surgeries will inevitable destruct part of the memory The belief that memory is stored in the brain (in neurons or in the network of neurons) apparently contradicts with findings in brain surgeries In the Nooflex Karl Ashley conducted a series of experiments trying to identify which part of the brain memories are stored He trained rats to find their way through a maze and then made lesions in different parts of the cerebral cortex in an attempt to erase its original memory trace His experimental animals were still able to find their way through the maze no matter where he put lesions on their brains He therefore concluded that memories are not stored in any single area of the brain but are instead distributed throughout it.
