Why does our memory sometimes fail us? Would you recognise an implanted memory? And what implications do the risks of false memories have for society?

In this Focus episode of How We’re Wired, join producer Dr Eva Higginbotham as she explores the murky depths of our imperfect memories; from whether a brain scan can identify whether a memory is true or false to the potential for memory-numbing drugs as a treatment for PTSD.

With special thanks to Daniel Schacter.
