Radio shows on memory

RadioLab’s Memory and Forgetting: (1 hour) According to the latest research, remembering is an unstable and profoundly unreliable process. 3 stories – A neuroscientist Joe LeDoux studies fear memories in rats and explains how you stop a rat from even making a memory; how you can implant memories pretty easily in humans; Clive Wearing, who has what Oliver Sacks calls “the most severe case of amnesia ever documented.

RadioLab ‘s “Vanishing Words”: (15 mins) A look at what scientists uncover when they treat words like data and how words serve as a window into aging brains…a window that may someday help pinpoint very early warning signs for Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.
