Cortico-hippocampal interactions underlie schema-supported memory encoding in older adults New paper led by @shenyanghuang.bsky.social! academic.oup.com/cercor/artic... Older adults' memory benefits from richer semantic contexts. We found connectivity patterns supporting this semantic scaffolding.

Last week, I had the honor of hooding my first graduate students, Cortney Howard and @shenyanghuang.bsky.social (w @felipedebrigard.bsky.social). Ceremonies like these bring clarity to the complex process of academic study. I know now that what we do is sacred.

🙋‍Come by my poster next Tuesday 8-10AM to discuss the good, the dad, and the ugly of Representational Similarity Analysis! (Not an April fools' joke) 🔗 www.cogneurosociety.org/poster/?id=5...

Hey everybody! #CNS2025 bleepstorm incoming! 9 POSTERS! I work with an amazing group of scientists, celebrating them this weekend in Boston is makes me so excited and hopeful (and I usually abhor the use exclamation points!) (All posters available on the lab website): mnemology.org/conferences/...

Newly minted DOCTOR in our lab, @shenyanghuang.bsky.social examines a lot of these techniques and their applications in a recent review paper. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38728902/ Pair it with this empirical masterpiece and you could probably solve the brain or something like that.

An absolute MUST READ for anyone doing task-related connectivity analyses w fMRI data. So many good things in here! 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s42...

THE BIG ONE! link.springer.com/article/10.3...

Very happy to report that our new paper titled "Counterfactual thinking induces different neural patterns of memory modification in anxious individuals", spearheaded by @shenyanghuang.bsky.social and Leonard Faul, and with Natasha Parikh and Kevin LaBar, is out in Scientific Reports! #neuroskyence

Wake up babe, first package release just dropped on GitHub 🔥😤🔥 I've begun to compile the custom JS + CSS I use to ✨prettify✨ my Qualtrics surveys under the hood, and the first thing done here is emulating the Simple layout UI while using the Flat layout: github.com/1nathanliang... More to come!!
