Endel Tulving, the Psychologist Who Transformed Our Understanding of Memory, Passes Away at 96

Endel Tulving, a groundbreaking psychologist, changed the way we think about memory and how it shapes our identity.

His research uncovered the distinction between learned information and remembered experiences.

He demonstrated that memory is not just a cerebral warehouse, but a complex system that relies on contextual cues for retrieval.

Dr. Tulving's legacy lies in his classification of memory types, including procedural, semantic, and episodic memory.
