What a shame you did not include a link or two to Barrie Trower's interviews or lectures!

I have written about him a number of times:

thanks, Frances it's important to note that Correction) He was never a DR, MI5 has published his qualifications as he was checked out by them before writing the guidelines for them with their devices. I want to get a copy of this publication.

I never heard that anyone claimed that Barrie Trower was a doctor. He said that he had been denied a PhD. The only previous job I could find when I searched his history was a physics teaching post at a private school.

You could not get a job teaching advanced physics normally without higher education!!

It was a normal high school level, not advanced. I worked in a Spanish private school teaching English without any formal qualification in teaching.

English is pretty easy through TEOFL you can teach here in a school, too. Exeter University banned him from the campus. So what was he here? just a researcher.....

There is no proof that he was at Exeter University for any reason.

this is interesting

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a fascinating topic in neuroscience. Let me provide you with an overview:

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a persistent strengthening of synapses based on recent patterns of activity. It's one of the major cellular mechanisms that underlies learning and memory in the brain.

Key points about LTP:

Definition: LTP is the long-lasting enhancement in signal transmission between two neurons that results from stimulating them synchronously.

Location: It occurs primarily in the hippocampus, a region crucial for memory formation, but also in other neural areas.

Mechanism:

When presynaptic neurons repeatedly stimulate a postsynaptic neuron, the connection between them strengthens.

This involves both chemical and structural changes at the synapse.

Molecular basis:

NMDA receptors play a crucial role in initiating LTP.

Calcium influx triggers a cascade of intracellular events.

AMPA receptors are often inserted into the postsynaptic membrane, increasing sensitivity to neurotransmitters.

Types:

Early-phase LTP: Lasts for a few hours and doesn't require protein synthesis.

Late-phase LTP: Can last for days or longer and requires new protein synthesis.

Significance:

LTP is thought to be a key mechanism in the formation of explicit memories.

It provides a biological basis for Hebbian theory: "Neurons that fire together, wire together."

Discovery:

First described by Terje Lømo in 1966 in the rabbit hippocampus.

Further characterized by Bliss and Lømo in 1973.
