Am I right in thinking that what these people:
http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20026845.000-memories-may-be-stored-on-your-dna.html
are saying is that memories can be stored as changes in the DNA inside
neurons?
If so, that would upset a few apple carts.
Would it mean that memories (including cultural adaptations) could be
passed from mother to child?
Implication for neuroscientists proposing to build a WBE (whole brain
emulation): the resolution you need may now have to include all the DNA
in every neuron. Any bets on when they will have the resolution to do that?
