How many animals can you name in 60 seconds? It may sound like a children's game, but for some it's dead-serious science. Tuesday morning on The Sound of Ideas, we'll find out how local scientists are using tools like lists of animals to gain important insight on how memory, and ultimately the brain itself, functions. While we know a lot about the anatomy of the brain, its inner-workings are still veiled in mystery. Join us Tuesday for a Science Cafe edition of The Sound of Ideas.

Guests
