We do not remember all our experiences equally long nor equally vividly. It appears intuitive, and has been experimentally demonstrated, that more salient and relevant experiences are preferentially remembered for a longer period of time. However, the mechanisms underlying the selective retention of memories are still under active investigation. Cognitive functions are thought to be supported by the coordinated activity of neuronal ...
