Perspectives on Memory is a one-day conference designed for social and healthcare professionals, artists, educators, and lifelong learners. Continuing education clock hours will be available.
Through the wide lenses of creativity and aging, this conference will explore the topic of memory from multidisciplinary perspectives including psychology, sociology, neurology, technology, as well as the visual, literary, and performing arts. Lectures by international specialists and local experts, including Charles Fernyhough, PhD, and Thomas Grabowski, MD, will present new findings in research and practice that question long-held assumptions about the way our minds work, challenging audiences to reframe their concept of memory.
After check-in and continental breakfast, the conference will begin at 9 am and conclude with a hosted reception following a full day of lectures and interactive presentations
