12、by sorting the pictures into categories for recall, such as images that contained people, buildings, flowers, and animals. The categorizing cells were found in the hippocampus, an area of the brain that processes sensory information into memory. In the experiment each monkey was shown one clip art p

13、icture, and after a delay of one to 30 seconds, picked the original out of two to six different images to get a juice reward.By recording cell activity during hundreds of these trials in which the pictures were all different, the researchers noticed that certain cells were more active when the pictu

14、res contained similar features, such as images of people but not other objects. They found that different cells coded images that fit different categories. The category cells grouped images based on common features a strategy to improve memory. For example, the same cell responded to both tulips and

15、 daisies because they are both flowers.“While such categorization is a highly efficient memory process, it may also have a downside,” said Deadwyler Ph.D, “ when the trials included more than one picture with people in it, instead of different images, the monkeys often confused the image with a pict

If we can understand in advance how the brain works when decisions are made, we can predict when the brain will make a mistake, and correct it, said Tim Pons, Ph.D, This finding about how large amou
