There are salient updates to attend to BUT if you’re wondering how they organize your memory, here’s a review/simulation offering diff. roles of prediction errors in building & breaking our models of the world w/ @davidclewett.bsky.social @jameswardantony.bsky.social inspired by Sarah DuBrow (1/7)

New lab paper led by @justfineneuro.bsky.social "Complementary roles for hippocampus and anterior cingulate in composing continuous choice”, now on bioRxiv! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our "I would have seen it if it were there" paper — a collaboration with @ranimo.bsky.social and @clarepress.bsky.social — is now out in Psych. Review. There’s a lot in this paper, but here are what I see as the 3 main takeaways: psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

Exciting news: we’re hiring! Chair in (Cognitive) Neuroscience and up to 3 Assistant Prof posts. Contact @christakou.bsky.social or myself for Neuro inquiries. See tinyurl.com/uuunhsnm for Chair details, and tinyurl.com/mrxnszzw to apply for Assistant Prof. Join us!

We have an open postdoc position with Rik Henson @rhens.bsky.social and Emily Holmes, at the Emotional Cognition Lab dtalmi.wixsite.com/emotional-co..., @uniofcam.bsky.social to conduct advanced memory modelling. Details here: www.jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/50770/ Apply by 21.4!

I recently spoke at a Congressional briefing with a military veteran from our PTSD clinical trial on the life-changing impact of the NIH Brain Initiative. Watch here👇 braininitiative.nih.gov/news-events/... The BRAIN Initiative is now facing a 20% cut on top of the 40% last yr…

“A new chapter has begun for two of the world’s most popular preprint platforms, bioRxiv and medRxiv, with the launch of a non-profit organization that will manage them” www.nature.com/articles/d41...

@diamondn.bsky.social et al. find that sleep enhances memory for the order of events from an art tour, but not the details of the events. The sleep-related advantage for sequences persists for over a year. @brianlevine.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Terrific how-to on communicating the value of basic research to the public in @thetransmitter.bsky.social by @tonyzador.bsky.social. You may be curious. But when you are communicating the value of what you do, it’s not about you. Point to discoveries. www.thetransmitter.org/outreach/how...

A study found that two-thirds of high school students couldn’t tell real news stories from ads on a website, and 96% failed to identify an organization's fossil fuel industry ties when assessing bias. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3102/... #MisinfoResearch

Excited to share our preprint "Fast-timescale hippocampal processes bridge between slowly unfurling neocortical states during memory search" 🧠✨ We leverage iEEG to elucidate the fast neural mechanisms by which long multimodal narratives are unfurled in continuous memory-search tinyurl.com/wjkr3dvf

🚨 new publication from our lab in @pnas.org ! "Expert navigators deploy rational complexity–based decision precaching for large-scale real-world planning" Entropy of streets & successor representations explain planning speed Colab wth Daniel McNamee at Champalimaud www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

New paper out in @pnas.org with @laurendinicola.bsky.social, Noam Saadon-Grosman, Mark Eldaief and Randy Buckner! We revisited the functional specialization of the human hippocampal long axis across two independent datasets, with some surprising results. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Interested in cleaning your iEEG dataset from pathological activity? Take a look at Rotem's algorithm and shared annotated dataset (by expert Neurologists) that allows easy comparison with other approaches.

What happened when public universities in 🇨🇦 started publicizing faculty salaries? ... ... ... The salary gap between men and women declined by 20-40% as a direct result. www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...

The Computational and Cognitive Neural Sciences lab at UC Riverside is recruiting psychology PhD students to join our team! Check out the flyer to learn about the lab and our stellar research community at UCR. Apply by 12/1! @halledz.bsky.social @ilanabennett.bsky.social @ucriverside.bsky.social

Super-psyched to share this preprint from my student Yicong (Alan) Zheng: "Recurrent Inhibitory Dynamics in the Entorhinal Cortex Support Pattern Separation" www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... It's a new biologicaly-based computational model of the entorhinal-hippocampal system. Thread (1/?)

Don´t plot means & confidence intervals alone; your data is more than that! With easy raincloud plots in JASP you get the full picture and can draw better conclusions. #stats #PsychSciSky 🧪 #dataviz

My lab at UCRiverside is once again recruiting grad students - come join us if you're interested in studying memory using EEG and/or fMRI in younger and older adults! You can check out more info on my grad app FAQ: bit.ly/dzmac Lots of my other fab colleagues are also recruiting: bit.ly/ccngrad

Postdoc alert! @mickcraig.bsky.social and I are looking for a postdoc to work for 3 years on thalamic place cells in beautiful Scotland! Details here: jefferylab.com/recruitment Closing date Oct 11. Drop me a line if you would like to discuss first

With colleagues at ALBA, I'm running an international climate survey for #LGBTQIA+ people in #neuroscience (including #psychology, #psychiatry, etc). It takes 10-20 min & you can enter a drawing for gift cards. Please repost & share w/colleagues. tinyurl.com/LGBTNeuro #QueerSTEM #LGBTQSTEM

Doris Tsao, @nicolecrust.bsky.social, and Tony Zador discuss how cuts to the BRAIN Initiative jeopardize progress toward addressing urgent societal needs and stall the development of treatments for diseases and disorders. Read more: dcjournal.com/critical-bra...

Super excited to share this one, out now in J Neuro! Memory reactivation during sleep does not act holistically on object memory. Led by the amazing @lizsiefert.bsky.social!!
