Memory is more than just a function of the human brain\u2014it is a fundamental structure embedded in the natural world, human culture, and technological systems. From the stratified layers of the Earth to the neural networks of the mind, from the meticulous organization of historical archives to the complex architectures of digital storage, memory takes many forms.<\/p>\n

Memory across Time and Disciplines is an interdisciplinary conference that brings together researchers from the sciences, humanities, and technology to explore the diverse ways memory is formed, stored, forgotten, and recovered. By bringing together scientists, historians, archivists, geologists, linguists, technologists, and artists, the conference aims to uncover the deep connections between how we remember\u2014whether through neurons, fossils, books, or bytes. This conference will not only highlight cutting-edge research but also inspire new ways of thinking about memory in a rapidly changing world.<\/p>\n
