The main goal of this course is to enable students to develop a comprehensive understanding of how the human memory system develops within a social context, and the implications of the memory system in different settings or states, such as after experiencing a trauma, or during eyewitness testimony, etc.

I expect students to develop an understanding of structural, functional, and theoretical bases of the memory system, and to reflect what they learn in this course upon constructing a study design and proposal, which they may consider conduct in the future. I am looking forward to taking this journey with you and participate in your learning experience.
