episodic memory is defined as a personal memory for specific events (lecture‚ week 1). The movie Embers deals directly with this concept as it portrays a future dystopian society in which an airborne pathogen causes symptoms of complete anterograde amnesia as well as deteriorated episodic memory.

testing quite like I do. It’s not the tedious english passages or the excessive and obscure math problems‚ but instead the inevitable question: “What is your ethnicity?” The fear invoked by the simple question is indescribable.
