Imagine, for example, a building site in your neighbourhood. The human brain can remember three key stages of it: the original state before the renovation, the construction work itself, and the final outcome once the project is completed. But how does it manage not to muddle those three memories?
The Institute of Neurosciences, a public research centre made up of CSIC and Miguel Hernández University, believes it has found this neurological mechanism in its new study published in the journal 'PLOS Biology'.
