Abstract

This video will take you through a learning and memory trip in the brain. We currently are witnessing an ever changing environment, from viruses, to eco-anxiety passing through war and climate change. Learning new information and skills, storing memories of this knowledge, and retrieving, modifying, or forgetting these memories over time are critical for flexibly responding to an ever changing environment.
