Synaptic and capture hypothesis has been proposed to describe the synaptic changes that occur during memory formation.

Behavioral Tagging relies on the setting of a learning tag and the synthesis of plasticity related proteins.

Tagging explains that how a learning tag produced as a result of weak training can be paired up with PRPs and can lead to long lasting memories.

This model provides an important platform to study and analyze memory.

It offers a consistent structure able to define promotion, modulation, and interference in the formation of lasting memories.
