Amnesia is a debilitating condition expected to afflict tens of millions of people in the coming decades. It is critical that the neuroscience and medical communities gain a deeper understanding of the nature of memory loss in amnesia and the mechanism through which it occurs. The proposed research will use neuroimaging and investigations in patients with memory disorders to examine this issue. By offering a new theoretical account of amnesia that emphasizes the important interrelationship between perception and memory, this research will reshape our understanding of higher-order cognition in general, and of memory disorders in particular.

健忘症是一种使人衰弱的疾病，预计在未来几十年将折磨数千万人。至关重要的是，神经科学和医学界对健忘症中记忆丧失的本质及其发生的机制有了更深入的了解。拟议的研究将使用神经成像和对记忆障碍患者的调查来检查这个问题。通过提供一种新的理论解释，强调感知和记忆之间重要的相互关系，这项研究将重塑我们对高阶认知的理解，特别是对记忆障碍的理解。
