Trinity Week Symposium in conjunction with Trinity EngAGE & U3A
The Science of Memory
A symposium focused on what we know of the science of memory. There has been about 100 or so years of empirical and experimental exploration of memory from psychological and neuroscientific points of views. We will explore topics from the fundamental psychological science underpinning memory, to some of the processes that support memory in the brain.
Presentations will be from some of Trinity's internationally-leading memory researchers from the Trinity College Institute of Neuroscience (TCIN)
