Charles R. E. K. S. Tulving is a renowned Canadian neuroscientist known for his groundbreaking research on human memory. He introduced important concepts like "episodic memory," which involves recalling personal experiences, and distinguished it from "semantic memory," which relates to general knowledge. Tulving’s work helped scientists understand how different types of memory work in the brain, influencing fields like psychology and cognitive neuroscience. His insights are fundamental to understanding how we remember events and information, shaping modern theories of memory and learning.
