One of the best ways to improve new learning and increase memory strength is by reprocessing the recently acquired information, for example, by thinking of it again. Synaptic plasticity, the process by which neurons change the strength of their connections with each other, is fundamental for learning and memory formation. Yet, at present, it is unclear how reprocessing information drives synaptic plasticity to support memory improvement. A new study suggests that reprocessing enhances memory formation by recruiting more synapses to represent the new memory, thus increasing its strength.
提高新学习和增强记忆强度的最佳方法之一是对最近获得的信息进行再处理，例如再次思考它。突触可塑性是神经元改变彼此之间连接强度的过程，是学习和记忆形成的基础。然而，目前尚不清楚信息再处理如何驱动突触可塑性来支持记忆改善。一项新的研究表明，通过招募更多的突触来表示新记忆，再处理增强了记忆形成，从而增加了记忆的强度。
