S782: From Mind to Molecules: Uncovering Molecular Mechanisms of Memory in Splash Fall 13 (Nov. 09, 2013)
With advances in biology and psychology, we've begun to have a more complete understanding the molecular processes which encode memories. We'll launch into a discussion that will take us from a psychological understanding of memory, then dive into the cell and molecular process that make memory possible. We'll even talk about diseases like Alzheimer's disease, and understand it can cause memory loss. A "memorable" experience!


S442: From Mind to Molecules: Uncovering Mechanisms of Memory in Splash Spring 13 (Apr. 06, 2013)
An in-depth look into the "miracle" of human memory. How does our brain store the memories we can recall decades later? How do different chemicals in the brain affect the way we learn and remember? How do these pathways go wrong in diseases like Alzheimer's Disease and dementia?
