The "information" contained in the protein which the neuron forms, reasons Hyden, becomes the impulse that the neuron sends along the filaments to other neighboring neurons...
...response that constitutes recognition of the note. The average human brain has ten billion neurons, so the number of possible permutations is astronomical. Further, said Dr. Hyden, this theory explains why neurologists have been unable to find precise centers in the brain for most higher mental functions: through its content of many imprinted molecules, each neuron may participate simultaneously in many neuronal networks-and therefore in many memories and complex thoughts...
