The Stanford Memory Project

The Stanford Memory Project is a research initiative at Stanford University that aims to better understand how memory works in the brain. It studies how people form, store, and recall memories, often involving brain imaging and behavioral tests. The goal is to uncover insights into normal memory processes and memory-related conditions like Alzheimer’s disease. By involving volunteers, the project seeks to develop improved diagnostic tools, treatments, and strategies to maintain cognitive health. Overall, it strives to enhance our understanding of memory to benefit individuals and society.
