Memory functioning

29.05.2024.

Memory is one of the most fundamental abilities of the human mind. Without it, daily functioning would be unthinkable. The human brain performs a complex task every moment, consuming large energy resources so that we can memorize, remember and also forget. Moreover, these processes are unconscious to us and therefore beyond our reach. However, there are techniques that can allow us to memorize the information we need more successfully and ensure that it is stored longer in our memory stores.

Therefore, based on her knowledge of the psychology of memory functioning and neuroscience, in her lecture "Psychology of memory functioning and neuroscience", neuroscience expert Agnese Ušacka will tell - what is memory from the point of view of cognitive and brain activity? What factors can influence brain activity in such a way that it is easier to memorize? Why does the brain forget information? As well as the brain's tendency to create false memories. Memory is flexible rather than static, so we can't always trust our own memories.
