Encore - What is it like to remember every day of your life, with Michael Yassa, PhD, and Markie Pasternak
For people with Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory, or HSAM, every day is memorable. Ask them what they were doing on this date 10 years ago, and they\u2019ll be able to tell you. Markie Pasternak, one of the youngest people identified with HSAM, and Michael Yassa, PhD, director of the\xa0Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at the University of California Irvine, talk about what it\u2019s like to have this ability, what we know about how the brains of people with HSAM store and retrieve this vast amount of autobiographical information, and what studying this unique ability can teach us more generally about how memory works.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
