S: Memory by DR. MARTIN WELLS
University of Cambridge
If we look at our own behaviour we soon realise that we do not always react in the same way to the same stimulus. One of the reasons for this change is that we remember. In fact there are three fairly-well-defined types of memory. The way our short-term memory is converted into something we can remember for a lifetime and how we store this memory are two of the most pressing problems of brain research.
