4-HOUR ONLINE COURSE

The Neuroscience of Memory

Instructor: Dr. Mark Olson

Embark on a fascinating and paradigm-shifting journey into the world of memory with "The Neuroscience of Memory." This course challenges the traditional notion of memory as a passive storage system, revealing instead its constructed and dynamic nature. You'll discover that memory is far from being a simple recording device; it's an active, evolving process influenced by numerous factors. Dive into the latest research on explicit and implicit memory, explore the neuroanatomy of memory, and uncover the surprising fallibility of our recollections. Gain insights into the profound implications of memory research for the legal system and everyday life.
