Question: I have couple of questions: 1. What is the neural mechanism for explicit memory to transfer into implicit memory? 2. How do we know we learned? 3. What is thought and thought process? 4. Is there a relation between the unimodal (in association cortices) and multimodal (in Hippocampal Pyramidal neurons) associations to thoughts/meanings/concepts? 5. What is the interpretation/physical meaning/ application in learning for low frequency stimuli ( 1Hz) - LTD activation; and High frequency stimuli (100 Hz)-activation of LTP. Help in understanding these is appreciated. Thanks.

Been thinking more about this: “What is the interpretation/physical meaning/ application in learning for low frequency stimuli ( 1Hz) – LTD activation; and High frequency stimuli (100 Hz)-activation of LTP”
I am not so sure that this does have an implication for learning in the classroom per se. We know that the timing of electrical activity within pyramidal neurons in the CA3 region of the hippocampus is really important for LTP…. but we cannot necessarily translate these findings directly to the timing of stimulus presentation in childhood. I.e. 100Hz or 1Hz presentation does not equate with electrical activity at 100Hz or 1Hz in the hippocampus. They are really quite separate concepts. So on the whole I suspect that this maybe a bit of a red herring.

Thanks for sending the link for the consolidation and answering my questions. The mechanism of consolidation is the one I am looking for. Thanks again.
