We have a new paper out on palindrome day➿: Stimulation of distinct parietal locations differentiates frontal versus hippocampal network involvement in memory formation (with @Vosstacular @NUMesulamCenter @vanhaerents @bbonakda) https://t.co/AnNGukAPPK

@fernandaedi congratulations, Fernanda!

This was such a nice collaboration with @_shrutidave @Vosstacular , @vanhaerents , and Marsel Mesulam. Stimulation of two distinct parietal areas can tap into two completely different networks.

We saw:

1. anterior and posterior parietal cortex, thought to associate with distinct memory subnetworks, do in fact distinctly contribute to memory formation
2. TMS applied to nearby regions (~32mm apart) can have dissociable effects -- TMS has pretty solid spatial resolution!

@fernandaedi Congratulations! 🥳

[UC Davis Letters and Science @UCDLandS]

Congratulations to @SwaabTamara, professor @UCDavisPsych and @UCD_CMB, on her election as a @PsychScience fellow! She studies how our brains understand language. #CognitiveNeuroscience #UCDavis

@bevcotter Thank you!

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

Pre-pandemic, we found theta-frequency TMS selectively enhanced memory in young adults. This vaxxed summer, we looked at whether that remained the case in older adults and found some neat similarities and differences - find out more at #SfN2021 poster P897.07 today at noon PST!

@JhendersonIMB Thank you and happy birthday to you!

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

@zreagh @SfNtweets @SfN_Events I also cannot get the live to work... Very cool very expensive conference 🙃

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

P.S. here's the original study that was conducted with young adults https://t.co/7ZeXmz59pO

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

Excited to have this out! Memory and language networks interface with the same region of the lateral cerebellum. We wanted to see if we could use noninvasive brain stimulation to bias cerebellar contributions to memory or language function. And we could!

[Molly Hermiller @mollyhermiller]

We found evidence of de-differentiation in the older adults, as theta-burst TMS had a more widespread, distributed effect on hippocampal connectivity in the older adults. In contrast, theta-burst TMS in the young adults had more hippocampal network-specific effects. (FIG 4)

New paper w/@Vosstacular @_shrutidave @StephWert @vanhaerents & @NUMesulamCenter folks out in Neurobiology of Aging https://t.co/kbOqhffRbx
We compared effects of TMS targeting the hippocampal network on fMRI connectivity and item-location memory in young vs. older adults.

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

super cool work!

I am very excited to share my final study of my dissertation which just got published! 2 year-olds learned new words and then listened to these words while sleeping in the MRI. Learned words showed hippocampal activation! https://t.co/CmMQNnbpSS

Hello! I'm presenting this work during #SNL2021 slide slam session Q today at noon PST (i.e., in about 2 hours). Come join and ask questions, read the article, or check out my video recording here (anytime for the rest of 2021!): https://t.co/0T7FQY0P31

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

Excited to share new work out with Brothers, @LivHoversten, Traxler, @SwaabTamara! We find ERP evidence that semantic prediction and domain-general processing are supported by separable mechanisms - in both young and older adults. 🧠

[Shruti Dave @_shrutidave]

@saluthra @LivHoversten @SwaabTamara Ha, it definitely shows we're using context cues well (and that I shouldn't type directly into the notification pop-up)

@saluthra @LivHoversten @SwaabTamara Thank you so much, that's so nice of you to say! Let me know if you have any questions! Hou're well as well, and congrats on the dissertation award talk!

@bevcotter I never saw them in CA, but somehow almost all Taco Bells in Chicago are cantinas?!
