A Neuroscientist's Guide to Memory: Tools for Remembering Better | Dr. Charan Ranganath

A Neuroscientist's Guide to Memory: Tools for Remembering Better | Dr. Charan Ranganath

Why do some memories seem to stick with us forever while others just… fade away?

The ideal person to help us wrestle with this question is Dr. Charan Ranganath, a renowned memory researcher with a unique approach to improving our memories. Instead of working to remember more, he suggests we should work to remember better.

Charan has spent more than 25 years as a professor of psychology and neuroscience, unraveling the complexities of memory. He’s a pioneer in understanding how our brains allow us to remember past events and use those memories to shape our present and future.

Charan’s latest book, "Why We Remember: Unlocking Memory's Power to Hold on to What Matters," is an exploration of memory's influence on our daily experiences and its potential as a tool for personal transformation.

In this conversation, we dive deep into how memory can be used as an accelerant for personal growth and learn how it can help us heal from trauma. We discuss practical strategies for improving memory and the performance benefits it brings to our decision-making and overall quality of life.

I’m excited for you to enjoy this memorable conversation with Dr. Charan Ranganath.
