Memory in Space and Time -- 302 (5651): 1621 -- Science. How Are Memories Stored and Retrieved? -- Miller 309 (5731): 92 -- Science. Packed into the kilogram or so of neural wetware between the ears is everything we know: a compendium of useful and trivial facts about the world, the history of our lives, plus every skill we've ever learned, from riding a bike to persuading a loved one to take out the trash.

Memories make each of us unique, and they give continuity to our lives. Understanding how memories are stored in the brain is an essential step toward understanding ourselves. Neuroscientists have already made great strides, identifying key brain regions and potential molecular mechanisms. Still, many important questions remain unanswered, and a chasm gapes between the molecular and whole-brain research. The birth of the modern era of memory research is often pegged to the publication, in 1957, of an account of the neurological patient H.M.
