Scott KanoskiProfessor of human and evolutionary biology and neurobiology at the University of Southern California who studies hunger, memory and diet
Kanoski explains that hippocampal acetylcholine ramps up during eating and ends higher after a meal, which he thinks helps animals remember the meal.
“We think that that elevated postprandial level of coelacoline hippocampus is to allow the animals to remember what the hell's going on”
