Very excited to share this work! This project is so special to me in many ways. I am endlessly grateful to my wonderful mentors @KuhlLab, @hulacon, and @sarahdubrow.
On many levels, I am grateful to have been involved with this paper led by the fantastic (and soon-to-be-Dr.) Futing Zou (@ZouFuting). @sarahdubrow would have been very proud. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
If you are interested in PhD programs to study the cognitive neuroscience of memory, several of us at University of Oregon are recruiting (including new hire @vpmurty)!! Applications due 12/1. Hoping to admit quite a few students!
The University of Oregon is seeking to establish an endowed fund in honor of @sarahdubrow that will support graduate students in psychology. The goal is to raise $25k. To contribute, go to giving.uoregon.edu/s/1540/17…. (pt 1/3)
It always feels trite to call something bittersweet, but I'm not sure that there's a better word to describe how I feel about sharing this paper. This project is so special to me, in so many ways, largely because of my co-first author Sarah DuBrow journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
Our 1st foray into free recall dynamics/ CMR to understand how reward motivation changes memory organization. @ea_horwath knocked it out of the park with @ninarouhani. Also one of the few remaining collaborations I had with @sarahdubrow. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…
Very excited to share my first preprint of graduate school! "Contextual familiarity rescues the cost of switching"
w/ the amazing @vpmurty and @sarahdubrowpsyarxiv.com/7sfh4/
Excited to share our new preprint! "Re-expression of CA1 and entorhinal activity patterns preserves temporal context memory at long timescales"
w/ the amazing @sarahdubrow@hulacon@KuhlLab and many others from the NSD crew @cvnlabbiorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…
Before her death shocked our department earlier this year, Dr. Sarah DuBrow was providing exceptional mentoring to her students. CURE recognized her powerful contribution through a faculty mentoring award. Read more about the lasting impact she had here: psychology.uoregon.edu/facul…
New paper with @Kwokszechai out now in JoCN! “Distinct Generation of Subjective Vividness and Confidence during Naturalistic Memory Retrieval in Angular Gyrus”
doi.org/10.1162/jocn_a_01838
In another study, @ZouFuting applied TMS on human angular gyrus and linked the AnG to gauging #vividness efficiency, but not meta-confidence, of #memory, thereby differentiating the monitoring of vividness from confidence biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
I’m reticent to post about the passing of @sarahdubrow, b/c I feel it trivializes the tragedy. But friends have been haunted by her head shot while scrolling. Here is a photo of the Sarah I loved. Not a loss to the field, but the loss of a Beer-drinking, cynical, caring friend.
Another 4 years later, very excited that this is out in the world! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… We (@sarahdubrow, @JonWinawer, @LilaDavachi) show that event boundaries -> compressed duration judgments (due to reduced memory access) hippocampal patterns predict subjective judgments!
New paper proposing a key role for latent cause inference in event segmentation with the brilliant @yeonsoon_shin. Part of an exciting, forthcoming special issue on “Event-Predictive Cognition” in Topics in Cognitive Science. doi.org/10.1111/tops.12505psyarxiv.com/gqhwv
Looking for up to 3 post-docs to study neural correlates of "conscious episodic recollection Λ meta-cognition”: e-physiology in NHP (2 positions), human fMRI (1 position), w/ computational background desirable. Location: Shanghai w/ ECNU / NYU-ECNU.
If you formalise Howard Eichenbaum’s ideas about relational memory, you can predict hippocampal/entorhinal spatial responses, but also complex non-spatial things like counting cells, and why hippocampus is important for transitive inference. @jcrwhittington@TimMuller1
