Organization of Memory

The organization of memory refers to how our brain stores and manages information. It involves different types of memory, such as short-term (holding immediate info) and long-term (retaining memories over time). Within these, memories are structured into networks based on related topics or experiences, allowing efficient retrieval. Brain regions like the hippocampus help form new memories, while the cortex stores them. Overall, this system ensures we can quickly access and use information, learning from experiences and adapting to new situations.
