Description

How does our brain remember things? Neuroscientist Andre Fenton found that question has no easy answers. Andre has spent years experimenting with PKMZeta, a tiny molecule he believes is the key to forming memories. But what if he’s wrong?

This is a personal story of the scientific process, and the bumps along the journey that lead to knowledge.
