What is the principle of long-term potentiation, and how might experience (exposure to info, practice, etc.) impact long-term memory?
Long-term potentiation, or LTP, is a process by which synaptic connections between neurons become stronger with frequent activation. LTP is thought to be a way in which the brain changes in response to experience, and thus may be an mechanism underlying learning and memory.
