Wonder what 2020 did to your memory or sense of time?

🚨 Now out in @PNASNews 🚨 we tracked how collective events and individuals’ emotional state (sampled throughout 2020) shaped spontaneous autobiographical memory across 3 years in the same ~1000 participants. (1/9)

Amazing opportunity!

This is a "pinch me" moment—but I have exciting news! In Fall 2024, I will be an Assistant Prof of Psychology at Binghamton University. My lab will use human behavior, computational methods, and fMRI to study how we build, represent, and use concepts. I can't wait to get started!

I’m very proud to share: A smartphone intervention that enhances real-world memory and promotes differentiation of hippocampal activity in older adults.

Excited to share a new preprint with Asieh Zadbood, @AChanales, @LilaDavachi 😃

We show that repeated encoding significantly enhances cortical replay and hippocampal-cortical coordinated replay, but not replay in hippocampus.

Scientists seek truth. But what is truth to a brain-body-environmental system? In this chapter, I explore the ways in which embodied concepts shape our shared knowledge and therefore our truths:

(Foreshadow: W. James pretty much had it nailed down.)

New #preprint! @JamesWardAntony and I try to reconcile the mixed findings on the effects that reactivation during sleep has on complex, multi-item memories. We argue that learning trajectories set during wake go on to determine the course of consolidation

@alicex78 Well said. Somehow being top at both warmth and competence.

[Tima Zeng @TimaZeng]

@AlexaTompary 👍 Would definitely apply if I were to get a second psychology phd

[Tima Zeng @TimaZeng]

Come work with this amazing mentor @AlexaTompary!! I am so jealous of people who apply this cycle for the opportunity to work with Alexa.

In a randomized, double-blind, phase II trial, Koch et al. find that 24 weeks of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the precuneus slows down cognitive and functional decline in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. https://t.co/jODfVG3GAJ

My sleep model w/ @AnnaSchapiro & @ptoncompmemlab now out in @PNASNews! We simulate how hippocampal-neocortical interactions promote memory consolidation, with NREM/REM alternation facilitating integration of new information into existing knowledge https://t.co/xRxAwRwkh7

[Psyche Loui @psycheloui]

Hi all, We have a new RA opening in my lab! #musicscience and #AlzheimersDisease research. People skills required; Computational/data skills are a major +. Details here, pls RT https://t.co/ZfXPZd9wSS

[Halle DimsdaleZucker @HalleZucker]

Applying to PhD programs & interested in studying human memory? Be sure to consider my lab @UCRiverside! We use fMRI and EEG to look at memory (and esp how context influences our memories) in younger adults & healthy older adults. Apps are due by Dec 1st: https://t.co/srcUJuEu26

@MarlieTandoc I always did homework and watched TV at the same time when I was a kid. This explains everything.

[Marlie Tandoc @MarlieTandoc]

SO excited to share this preprint!💫 Our tasks/goals shape what we learn vs. ignore. We find that while true for adults, it is not for kids. Kids learned equally well regardless if information was the focus of a task or if it was entirely task irrelevant https://t.co/aB0faIrkvo

Trying to predict conversion from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's disease? Using factor scores is an easy-to-use and powerful approach for this, and using factor scores from multiple data modalities is even better. Welcome to check our new paper:
