 Context</p><h3>ABSTRACT</h3><p>The cognitive map theory assigns critical fu
 nctions in exploration\, spatial cognition and context memory to the mammal
 ian hippocampus. This talk will explore the historical background to the th
 eory\, and its implications for the organization of memory in the brain acr
 oss the lifespan. Unique features of hippocampal anatomy and circuitry will
  be described and related to the creation and maintenance of cognitive maps
 \, and their role in supporting context memory. The importance of hippocamp
 al maps for both recent and remote contextual memories will be emphasized.<

 edu/users/lynn-nadel">Dr. Lynn Nadel</a> is currently Regents' Professor Em
 eritus of Psychology and Cognitive Science. His work has focused on the fun
 ctions of the hippocampus in memory and spatial cognition\, leading to sign
 ificant contributions in the study of stress and memory\, sleep and memory\
 , memory reconsolidation\, and the mental retardation observed in Down synd
 rome. He has promulgated\, with collaborators\, two highly influential theo
 ries in cognitive neuroscience: the cognitive map theory of hippocampal fun
 ction\, and the multiple trace theory of memory. He was the co-recipient in
  2005 of the Grawemeyer Prize in Psychology (for the “cognitive map” theory
 ) and received the National Down Syndrome Society’s Award for Research (200
 6)\, the Sisley-Lejeune International Prize for Research on Intellectual Di
 sability (2013)\, the Society for Experimental Psychologist’s Lifetime Achi
 evement Award (2016)\, the Gold Medal for Lifetime Achievement from the Ame
 rican Psychological Foundation (2017)\, the William James Fellow Award from
  the Association of Psychological Societies (2019)\, and the Distinguished 
 Scientific Contribution award from the American Psychological Association (
 2020). His research\, published in over 200 journal articles\, chapters and
  books\, has been supported by grants from NIMH\, NSF\, NICHD\, NINDS and s
 everal private foundations. He is a Fellow of the Association of Psychologi
 cal Societies\, the American Association for the Advancement of Science and
  the Society of Experimental Psychologists. At the University of Arizona he
  served as Head of the Psychology Department for 13 years (1989 – 2002)\, c
 ontributing to the emergence of the department as one of the strongest on c
 ampus\, and in the top 20% nationally. He also served in the role of Interi
 m Dean of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the early 1990s\, has several t
 imes been Chair of the University-wide Strategic Planning and Budget Adviso
 ry Committee\, and served for 4 years as Chair of the Faculty.</p><h3>THE E
 VENT</h3><p>The annual Quinn Memorial Lecture brings together the UBC Psych
 ology community and friends for an evening of dialogue and a chance to lear
 n first-hand about some of the most innovative psychology research from ren
 owned experts. The lecture is made possible by a generous gift to our depar
 tment from prominent alumnus\, Dr. Michael J. Quinn (1927-2004). Learn <a h
