Description

Can't Remember What I Forgot: The Good News from the Front Lines of Memory Research is an essential behind-the-scenes foray into the world of cutting-edge memory research that unveils ?ndings about memory loss only now available to general readers. Halpern spent years in the company of the neuroscientists, pharmacologists, psychologists, nutritionists, and inventors who are hunting for the genes and molecules, the drugs and foods, the machines, the prosthetics, the behaviors and therapies that will stave off Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia and keep our minds--and memories--intact. Halpern wanted to ?nd out what the experts really knew, what the bench scientists were working on, how close science is to a cure, to treatment, and to accurate early diagnosis.

Sue Halpern received her doctorate from Oxford University in 1985 and ?rst began teaching at Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons. Her work has appeared in The New Yorker, the New York Times, Rolling Stone, Condé Nast Traveler, and The New York Review of Books, among other publications.

This event took place on May 13, 2008, as a part of the Authors@Google series.
