NSF Science Now: Episode 30

The video covers four main studies: Penn State's research on attribute amnesia, showing how expectations affect memory; University of Massachusetts Amherst's study on infant learning, highlighting the importance of unique labels; Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's findings on coral reef erosion due to ocean pH changes; and Georgia Institute of Technology's discovery of security risks from side channel emissions. Each study provides insights into human cognition, environmental challenges, and technological vulnerabilities.

What role do people's expectations play in memory retention according to the study?

How can humans help slow the decline of coral reefs as suggested by the research?

What methods did researchers use to measure side channel emissions from computers?
