In medicine and neurology, amnesia is a symptom that is a "pathologic partial or complete loss of the ability to recall past experiences (retrograde amnesia) or to form new memories (anterograde amnesia). This condition may be of organic or psychologic origin. Organic forms of amnesia are usually associated with dysfunction of the diencephalon or hippocampus."[1]
