Memories are made of this
Pennie Latin asks why some memories last a lifetime while others fade away, and investigates how the brain makes and retrieves memories.
What are strong memories made of? Why do we remember what we remember and which memories last, quite literally, a lifetime while others just fade away? In this Brainwaves special Pennie Latin investigates how our brain makes and retrieves memories; explores how memory changes over time and why we seem to remember certain stages of our lives and particular events more sharply than others and considers the memories which remain most precious as we age.
