A memory is not a straight line from one point to another, even if we sometimes think of them like linear stories. This key insight that cognitive neuroscientists have known for many years is now guiding a new type of research—to explore not only how memories evolve over time but also how they can be strengthened or changed. Assisting researchers with this new exploration is a powerful tool: smartphones. At the annual meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS) in Boston, scientists will be presenting new data from smartphone studies about a range of actions people take can help them build stronger and more detailed memories.
