About this Event

The Limits of Memory: Why We Forget, What We Notice, and How We Can Learn Better

Why do some moments stay with us while others disappear almost as soon as they happen? How much of what we remember reflects what actually occurred, and how much is shaped by what we notice, how we interpret experiences, and how our minds reconstruct the past?

Join The Curious Cup for an engaging lecture led by a top professor, exploring the fascinating science of human memory. Discover why our memories are far from perfect recordings, how attention influences what we retain, and why forgetting is not necessarily a flaw but an essential part of how our minds work.

Explore what memory research reveals about how we learn, retain information, and make sense of our experiences—and what we can do to learn more effectively.

Come curious. Leave questioning what you thought you knew.
