At the 2019 meeting in New York we celebrated 30 years of MDRS with a special symposium reflecting on the past, present, and future of memory research. Harry Whitaker began with “Genesis: What did we know about memory and brain in 1989?” (video of talk also available), Morris Moscovitch added “Exegesis: From neuropsychology to cognitive neuroscience of memory: The deep influence of neuroimaging“, and Lynn Nadel concluded with “Prophecy: Prediction is hard, especially about the future“.
