LLPD 597 - Memory Enhancement

Why do we forget? What kinds of memories are there? What can be done to improve or maintain memory? We'll explore these questions and more using lectures, films, and discussions in this four-week class. We'll also cover memory loss due to stroke, Alzheimer's, or other neurological causes.
