really nice and well done meta-analyses and review here...highly recommended!

With some trepidation, I'm putting this out into the world: gershmanlab.com/textbook.html It's a textbook called Computational Foundations of Cognitive Neuroscience, which I wrote for my class. My hope is that this will be a living document, continuously improved as I get feedback.

We are still accepting applications for a tenure track position in cognitive and neural systems in the Psychology Department at University of Arizona. Please repost: arizona.csod.com/ux/ats/caree...

how important are space and time to memory? the surprising result from a new paper with graduate student Sameer Sabharwal-Siddiqi is that several measures of space and time show no correlation with the richness of episodic memories! check it out: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

what happens when you spend two weeks learning new navigation or memory skills? as shown in our recent paper below, brain network connectivity changes but not hippocampal or other brain volumes! special thanks to collaborators Li Zheng and Steve Weisberg elifesciences.org/articles/106...

This is truly amazing. 85% accurate test in 45 minutes. The work was funded by the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health. Good thinking on the part of Trump/Musk to cut its funding. Make Cancer Great Again.

A pleasure to speak to host Joe Murray of The Human Podcast about my research, career & journey through life Covering: London taxi drivers, dreaming rats, virtual worlds, my navigation test/game: Sea Hero Quest, & navigators of micronesia: youtube.com/watch?v=9eTz...

New role for a Project Coordinator at COS. Perfect for an early career researcher passionate about open scholarship and looking to gain research experience, whether to then go to grad school or stay in industry. jobs.lever.co/cos/ce551e5d...

Amazing opportunity to be a lab manager in @sarahsolomon.bsky.social's new lab!!

Thank you Benjamin for a fun conversation. Chance to learn about science...and more...from our discussion!

We're looking for a new postdoc to join my lab group! Please help spread the word. Our project is collaborative study with the Washington State Twin Registry (WSTR) and affords incredible research opportunities related to the behavior genetic study of social relationships and health. Details in link

We have filled two positions but one is still open. Please apply to the position ending in 305– it’s a silly HR thing. Feel free to email me directly for more info.

My lab is recruiting new members for an NIH-funded project to uncover neural mechanisms of motivation and its regulation w fMRI neurofeedback and innovative multivariate modeling.  Please share! Full postings: careers.duke.edu/job-invite/2... Postdocs careers.duke.edu/job-invite/2... ResearchCoord

I really liked this as well!

Does the hippocampus play a time-limited or perpetual role in spatial memory? In naturalistic tasks, the hippocampus is NOT necessary for gross representations of large-scale environments. But it plays a long-lasting role in memory for local layouts and details. #neuroskyence @PsychSciSky

I wrote a j-club commentary on a recent article published in #Jneurosci by @neurosteel.bsky.social et al. I discuss the phenomenon of retrieval-related 'anterior shift' and I highlight the implications that this work has on studies examining neural reinstatement. www.jneurosci.org/content/44/1...

Very pleased to announce our recent paper on aging and spatial memory in PNAS with research scientist Dr. Li Zheng! We find both age-related and performance-related heterogeneity that contribute to older adults having, on average, worse spatial memory. Check it out! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

New paper in #Jneurosci !⭐ doi.org/10.1523/JNEU... Prior work suggests that age-related reductions in neural selectivity are restricted to the scene-responsive cortex. We show that age effects for other visual categories are observed when selectivity is measured at the level of individual stimuli.
