Season 7, Episode 1: Learning and Memory

We’re kicking off Season 7 with a deep dive into learning and memory—perfect for those who love an info dump! This episode explores the four key stages of memory, what affects perception and encoding, and the different types of memory, from working to long-term. We look at how neurodivergent brains process and recall information, the impact of hormonal changes on memory for women and AFAB people, and what influences memory retention over time. To wrap up, we share practical strategies for improving memory, from movement and environmental adjustments to structured learning techniques.
