Endel Tulving, who transformed the study of human memory with revelatory observations about how the brain stores and retrieves information — for example, differentiating from knowing what a shoe is to remembering the purchase of limited edition Nikes — died Sept. 11 at a retirement home in Mississauga, Ontario. He was 96.
The cause was a heart attack, according to his daughters, Linda Tulving and Elo Tulving-Blais.
