EpicMem© is designed by a neuroscientist to train visuo-spatial episodic memory using the well tested and scientifically validated system of paired associated learning (PAL). PAL has been used in memory research for over a century and is also used in neuropsychological tests, and brain-training. This classical memory paradigm involves the pairing of two items, in this case with the help of a cue (cued recall).
Episodic memory is a subtype of memory known to be particularly susceptible to normal aging but also particularly susceptible in pathological conditions associated with memory loss. For example, episodic memory deficits are the first noticeable symptom of early Alzheimer’s Disease. Making training episodic memory is an important focus area for cognitive health.
Episodic memory comprises of the what, where & when in personally experienced events. Mentally reliving past events “mental time travel” it involves remembering a particular life episode, such as sharing a meal with a friend, remembering what you had for breakfast that morning, the suit you wore for last night’s party. These are all consciously recollected memories related to personally experienced events.
Disruptions in episodic memory can manifest in everyday life scenarios as misplacing keys, missing appointments and more critically, events such as leaving the cooker on or forgetting to take medication. The impact of memory loss can have an enormous effect on you and your family’s wellbeing and quality of life through loss of valuable memories and disruptions of activities of daily living.
Memory is an important cognitive process that is essential to day-to-day functioning. Deficits in memory are the most common cognitive complaint in the aging population. With impairments in memory leading to changes in cognitive skills/brain function.
There is growing evidence to support cognitive & memory training as safe and affordable ways to maintain mental function in adults.
The key to maintaining function is, neuroplasticity. The brain can adapt both structurally and functionally throughout life, from early childhood to later in life and even in those with neurodegenerative disorders.
Changes in memory are preceded by neuronal loss long before symptoms become evident, so implementing preventetive strategies early on is of paramount importance.
