    Abstract
    Learning methods determine the degree of stimulation of engrams encoding information to be memorised. More enriching modes of learning allow more enduring long-term potentiation of the synapses associated with these memories. The additional activity causes a prolonged increase in [Ca2+] in the dendritic spine of the postsynaptic neuron. This allows Ca2+-mediated molecular pathways to bring about cytoskeletal remodeling, posttranslational modifications, and protein trafficking. These processes contribute to early long-term potentiation of the synapses, strengthening the memory traces they store and leading to improved performance ...

    Learning methods determine the degree of stimulation of engrams encoding information to be memorised. More enriching modes of learning allow more enduring long-term potentiation of the synapses associated with these memories. The additional activity causes a prolonged increase in [Ca2+] in the dendritic spine of the postsynaptic neuron. This allows Ca2+-mediated molecular pathways to bring about cytoskeletal remodeling, posttranslational modifications, and protein trafficking. These processes contribute to early long-term potentiation of the synapses, strengthening the memory traces they store and leading to improved performance on tests of memory recall.
