Overview

Interview with Gary Lynch (in a converted workspace trailer next to the buildings of the Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory at the University of California, Irvine, as well as in the center's lab). Lynch talks about his unhappy childhood, finding meaning in life, how a memory is recorded in the brain, why the brain ages, how brain cells communicate with each other, mortality, the aging process, and the loss of childhood memories.
