Memory

In studying Memory, researchers draw on the methods of cognitive neuroscience to investigate how the human brain learns and stores knowledge. Specific areas of study include neural mechanisms of memory retrieval and its links to other cognitive processes (see Coutanche), the interplay between language and long-term learning (see Fraundorf and Warren), and the influence of memory on medical diagnosis and decision-making (see Rottman), see also Exercise Can Help Older Adults Retain Memories.
