Dr. Helmstetter presented “How Does Memory Work” at UWM’s Short Talks Big Ideas

Our ability to learn and remember is central to our experience of the world and sense of who we are. UWM Distinguished Professor of Psychology Fred Helmstetter describes how we use molecules, cells and circuits in the brain to store and retrieve information. Dr. Helmstetter presented at UWM’s inaugural “Short Talks, Big Ideas” event in February 2018. The event featured eight powerful lectures with the potential to reshape how we see and understand the world in 2018.
