Pure speculation, until we understand how the brain works we can't know for sure what is what and if that stuff is used for information encoding.

- alan_cx 14y agoSo don't read anything about it until some one mysteriously pops up with the complete brain specification? It is not speculation, its a hypothesis and theory which has some evidence to support it. Now they and others will go off and try to build on it, or disprove it. I don't understand why anyone would be scornful and dismissive of this?
- zerostar07 14y agoThis is a particulary bad example of "what to read". Try this: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22441246 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22441246
- Daniel_Newby 14y agoSaying that CaMKII probably associates with microtubles to form memories is discovery, a reasonable extrapolation. Calling the molecule's arms is the purest and most unwarranted speculation.

- Daniel_Newby 14y agoYes. Thanks.
- coldarchon 14y ago"So don't read anything about it until some one mysteriously pops up with the complete brain specification?" There are between 100.000 and 250.000 publications for every popular science every year, it DOES make sense to not read those which have no scientific background nor reasoning.
