Research Opportunities

  Frank Healy is one of fewer than 20 people in the world who is classified as having "Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory" or HSAM. Franks HSAM is similar to the police detective Carrie Wells in the show Unforgettable. He was a research subject at the University of California in Irvine. Frank remembers every day of his life since he was six years old. THis includes the day of the week, the weather in his area, personal and news events. The university study first consited of telephone quizzes where they would name a news event or a date. If they named the news event he would have to say the date it occurred and the day of the week the date occurred. If they named a date he would say the day of the week it was or will be, and a news event within a month of the date. After four quizzes they requested his presence at the University for more testing. They read from journals he had sent them and asked him about dates and events. At the end of the day he was told he does have Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory.
