Author Bio(s)

Siddhesh Kudtarkar is a medical student at Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Kudtarkar enjoys books on philosophy, with specific interests in metaphysics. He likes to longboard and play chess in his free time. Throughout his time in medical school, he has had to memorize a multitude of abstract and random facts about the different parts and functions of the human body. This experience has galvanized Kudtarkar to speak about memory and how it relates to how we interact with the people around us.

Talk Description

Inspired by the way he was memorizing facts for his medical school exams, Kudtarkar wanted to know if he could remember specific and verifiable details from every day of his life too using a memory program called Anki. Although he was able to achieve this to a certain extent, the insights that he had after conducting this experiment were even more fascinating and speak to memory’s role in guiding our everyday lives.
