<p>Why does our memory sometimes fail us? Would you recognise an implanted memory? And what implications do the risks of false memories have for society? </p> <p>In this Focus episode of How We’re Wired, join producer Dr Eva Higginbotham as she explores the murky depths of our imperfect memories; from whether a brain scan can identify whether a memory is true or false to the potential for memory-numbing drugs as a treatment for PTSD. </p> <p>With special thanks to Daniel Schacter. </p> <p>How We’re Wired is a Fresh Air Production for The Bertarelli Foundation.
