What If Every Cell Has a Memory? From Cells to Consciousness | Prof. Nikolay Kukushkin @niko-kukushkin.bsky.social

What makes neurons special? While all cells can change their gene expression and signals, neurons are unique because they form thousands of highly specific connections that can be modified independently. That specificity is what makes the brain so powerful and unique.

Prof. Kukushkin explains the massed vs. spaced effect: memory lasts longer when learning is spread out, and this rule applies not just to humans, but even to single cells.
