This Kid's T-Shirt asks "How are memories stored and retrieved?" 

This question falls under the category of cognitive psychology and neuroscience. It seeks to understand the complex mechanisms involved in the formation, storage, and retrieval of memories in the brain. Researchers in this field investigate a wide range of topics, such as the molecular and cellular mechanisms of memory formation, the neural circuits that encode and store memories, and the cognitive processes involved in memory retrieval.

By studying how memories are stored and retrieved, scientists hope to gain a deeper understanding of the brain and how it processes information. This research can also have important implications for the development of treatments for memory-related disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease.

Memories are stored in the brain at different levels. How many brain levels are there? What happens to memories stored at lower levels vs. those stored at higher levels? How does our brain act as a storeroom for our memories? What would happen if our brains lost the ability to store our memories? How could it lose that ability? So how do you think memory works?
