Memory defines us. Memory is the basis of our sense of self. But how do the structures of the mind store memories? What changes do memories imprint on the brain? And what is the role of emotion in determining the quality of our memories? Brian Greene explores these and related questions with four top researchers--Veronica O’Keane, Tim Bredy, Gail Robinson and Oliver Baumann—who unravel myriad mysteries of the human capacity for memory. This program is part of the Big Ideas series, supported by the John Templeton Foundation. The live program was presented at the 2023 World Science Festival Brisbane, hosted by the Queensland Museum.
