I am writing an article about the memory, and memory loss. It is my first article in these newspapers and I want to impress my editor. But unfortunately I have no professional knowledge in this area. So I need some definitions or professional knowledge. It doesn't have to be much just something I can use as guideline.

As a doctor I think I can provide you with necessary information. memory loss is the most important and most common cognitive ability that is lost. Memory is a complex function of the brain that has fascinated philosophers and scientists for centuries. Immediate memory is highly vulnerable to distraction, requiring attention and vigilance to maintain the content. memory loss is usually caused by intoxication, infection, or metabolic derangement.
