Excited to share my PhD results showing a hierarchical coordinate system for sequence memory in human EC.

Below is a thread explaining this nonsense. 1/9
In our new @NatureComms paper, we investigate the visual system's priorities for extracting meaningful information from faces and bringing it to conscious awareness. We use a new tachistoscope that enables visual presentations as short as 0.002 ms: https://t.co/aqLOrIKBMP (🧵👇)
Proud of our work and my PhD baby. Now out in Science: Pronouns reactivate conceptual representations in human hippocampal neurons. Thanks to @Pieters_Tweet, @MatthewWSelf and the others for this great study! https://t.co/t1mwL2i0l2
How does our brain make sense of the temporal aspect of our experiences? A great @nature paper by @PTacikowski@GuldamlaKalendr@DavideCili and @ItzhakFried describes how it is encoded by neurons in the hippocampal and entorhinal cortex https://t.co/LTscezbU5z
Concept neurons signal predictions of what image comes next despite participants having no knowledge of an underlying presentation structure (they learn it implicitly). And evidence of post-encoding neural sequential replay to boot!
Temporal structure of experience etched on firing of human hippocampal-entorhinal neurons to serve memory & prediction. See our study @Nature at @UCLANsgy, great work by lead author @PTacikowski with @GuldamlaKalendr & @DavideCili support @NIH_NINDS.

Luckily, I had *just* watched Freaky Friday with my sister before writing about this cool new study where friends experienced an illusion that they swapped bodies.
