   Isn't the hippocampus where short-term memory is stored? Why did the #Kdrama #QueenOfTears #눈물의여왕 said it is for long-term #memory? It's also actually stored in parts of the brain, the hippocampus only acts as a catalyst to store, not access, right?

     @youronlyone I can pull up my old psych notes 😂

     Based on what I've noted down, the hippocampus deals with all things explicit memory, but I think it is more related to the handling of long term memory, as short term memory is handled elsewhere I believe.

     I didn't do great in psychology so don't take my word for it though 😂

     A quick Google search does agree with what you've said, however it also agrees in saying that the hippocampus helps consolidate it into long term memory.

     @youronlyone i can only google, too. However the brain is after all super complex and all brain functions do work together.
