Postdoc @Columbia. I study memory, as far as I recall.

[Tamara Gedankien @Gedankient]

🧠 New preprint!

We used human intracranial EEG + pharmacology to test a core question in memory research: is hippocampal theta required for retrieval?

Turns out it’s not—and may instead reflect a reinstated encoding mode.

Thrilled to share this collaboration with lead author @Gedankient at @neurojosh and @bradlega labs. Check it out the preprint:

Bottom line:
📉 Theta ≠ Retrieval
📈 Theta = Encoding/Updating

This subtle but important shift reframes how we think about the neural basis of memory, and why cholinergic drugs help some processes and not others.

In analyses led by @ZabehErfan, we also show that neural dynamics under cholinergic blockade can be decoded from low-dimensional features of LFPs across electrodes.

The link for this position had gone down for a bit; it's back up, and I am still looking for a postdoc excited to work with human intracranial data.

Well-suited for animal electrophysiologists to jump to human data; all that's needed is coding and signal processing experience!

[Shari Wiseman @sharilwiseman]

We're hiring a computational/systems/cognitive neuro editor! Please spread the word! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

[Elliot Smith @50kDinar]

I'm hiring a postdoc to focus on analysis of the myriad human single neuron data that is sitting on our storage server. If you are interested in human neuron data, particularly how it might interact with LFP data, please reach out!

[Salman Qasim @QasimEtal]

🚨🚨 I'm recruiting a postdoc to come work with me at Rutgers!

If you are interested in LFP and single-neuron data in humans, please reach out. Rutgers is a wonderful environment for human neuroscience research!

Delighted to announce our latest work in @NatureHumBehav. While watching movies, theta phase precession is triggered by cognitive boundaries. Strength of precession predicts strength of memory formed. @Zjmay1 @gkreiman @CedarsSinai @CaltechN https://t.co/Fiu0q0SLdY

📜🎉 I have a new preprint: a systematic review of clinical investigations of aperiodic activity!

I reviewed 143 reports from across 35 disorders, to summarize current results, evaluate current practices, and make some recommendations for future work:
