This document discusses the neurochemistry of learning and memory. It defines different types of learning and memory, and factors that affect them. Various neurotransmitters involved in learning and memory are described, including acetylcholine, dopamine, glutamate, and GABA. The document also outlines the process of learning and memory formation at the neuronal level. Common learning and memory disorders are mentioned, as well as methods to diagnose them and potential enhancers.

3. INTRODUCTION
Neurochemistry of learning and memory we discuss
mainly the Aids which can enhances learning and
memory process ,Types, Process of Learning and
Memory, role of neurotransmitters, and Synaptic
changes in CNS.
5. TYPES
Different types of learning are
• Motor learning
• Verbal learning
• Concept learning
• Discrimination learning
• Learning of principles
• Problem solving
• Attitude learning
8. FACTORS
Factors Affecting Memory
• Thyroid Problems
• Menopause
• Lack of Sleep
• Anxiety and Depression
• Certain Medications
• Stress
• A Higher "Infectious Burden"
9. LEARNING & MEMORY AIDS
There is no doubt that the best way to remember or learn is to
pay attention, understand, and practice. This aids will help to
learn and memorise the things easily are
Learning Aids
• Visual (Verbal) Print or Duplicated
• Visual (Pictorial) Non-projected Two-dimensional
• Audio
• Visual Non-projected Three-dimensional
• Visual Projected
• Audio-visual Projected
10. LEARNING & MEMORY AIDS
Memory Aids
• The place method
• The coding method
• The face name method
• The keyword method
14. ACETYICHOLINE
Neurotransmitter at all autonomic ganglia, at many
autonomically innervated organs, at the neuromuscular
junction, and at many synapses in the CNS.
23. LEARNING AND MEMORY ENHANCERS
Nootropics also called smart drugs, memory enhancers, neuro
enhancers, cognitive enhancers, and intelligence enhancers—
are drugs, supplements and functional foods that improve one
or more aspects of mental function. Specific effects can include
improvements to working memory,motivation, or attention
Amphetamine
Methenlphenidate
Eugeroics
Xanthines
24. CONCLUSION
Learning is the strengthening of existing responses . Memory is
a phase of Learning. Learning and memory processes involves
a cascade of complex reactions, structural changes in different
regions of brain, along with the role of neurotransmitters i.e.,
increased levels of Ach, Glutamate, Epinephrine, Dopamine.
Neurotransmitters in turn is concerned with generating
Excitatory Post Synaptic Potential, Sensitization and Long term
Potentiation the major cellular mechanisms that underlies
learning and memory
