Définition
- Especially throughout the 20th century, philosophers, psychologists, and neurologists have tended to fiercely disagree about whether the brain and mind are modular and functions are localized (as in the caricature of 19th-century phrenologists) or whether it is more uniform and acts more globally, with its functions diffusely represented. One contested aspect of brain function is memory: When one has a new memory, what changes in the brain? Where does the memory “go” in the brain? The engram (or “trace”) is the putative particular brain locus for memories. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Engram]
