Daniel L. Schacter, Ph.D., is the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor in Harvard
University's Department of Psychology, where his research interests center on
cognitive and neuropsychological analyses of memory, amnesia, and
consciousness, with particular emphasis on brain mechanisms of memory
distortion and how memory is used to imagine future events. He is also
interested in applying basic research findings concerning memory to everyday
life. Schacter is the author of several books: Stranger Behind the Engram:
Theories of Memory and the Psychology of Science (1982); Searching for
Memory: The Brain, the Mind, and the Past (1996); and The Seven Sins of
Memory: How the Mind Forgets and Remembers (2001); and has published in
many journals as well. Schacter is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts
and Sciences and a recipient of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial
Fellowship and the American Psychological Association's Award for
Distinguished Scientific Contributions (2012). He has propelled the field of
cognitive neuroscience, first through studies of patients suffering anterograde
amnesia and subsequently through functional brain imaging studies.
