Embarrassing memories stick with us, but not for other people. Even years later, we might cringe to think of the things we've done. But If it's so unpleasant, why do we do it?

Conversely, FC from the right anterior frontal lobe to the medial temporal cortex, including the fusiform and parahippocampal gyri, was reduced in MCI patients. Increased FC from the bPOC to the right ...
