Alcohol and Memory/Learning
Alcohol inhibits a part of your brain called the hippocampus. It is this region of the brain that is vital to the formation of new memories. So if you havealcohol in your system while you are in class or studying calculus you are lesslikely to store this information in your memory. Learning and storing memoriesare a complex process so it is not that simple as to just avoiding alcohol while youare studying for a big test of memorizing intricate plays. Rather, your brain isworking hard to turn the information you have studied into memories even afteryou have stopped thinking about it. So going out drinking after spending the dayin the library studying will likely negate all your hard work, as you brain is unableto turn that information into memories.
