I discoved last night when reading Scientific American Mind, October/November 2009. His profile begins on page 33. He was award the Nobel Prize for his work that revealed the basic mechanisms of memory. It is something that all educators should know. After all, our effort is futile if our students do not remember what they have been taught.
I would summarize it for you, but then you would most likely not discover Eric Kandel. Get to know Eric Kandel and then you will know why he was awarded the Nobel Prize.
