Abstract
If you could erase someone from your mind, would you? Is it presently even possible to do this? When first released, Michel Gondry and Charlie Kaufman’s critically-acclaimed 2004 film, “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”, sparked popular interest in memory reconsolidation and its applications. It also raised questions on how neuropsychiatry could potentially change the way we view ourselves and our minds. Dr Amy Milton from the Department of Experimental Psychology and Behavioural & Clinical Neuroscience Institute, University of Cambridge will be discussing her research interests in this area. Her brief talk will be followed by the screening of “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”. An informal Q&A session will be held after the event, over refreshments.
We look forward to welcoming you!
