Children exhibit greater persistence of motor learning-related patterns of hippocampal activity into post-task wake epochs https://t.co/Mlen04aajm #biorxiv_neursci
I'm very excited to announce that I will be joining the @memorylab1 team as a postdoctoral researcher starting June 2025! I will be funded by the postdoctoral fellowship of @ParkinsonCanada.
Congrats to @ankevr97 for obtaining a highly competitive 2 year postdoctoral fellowship by @ParkinsonCanada. Starting June 1st, Anke will be in the @memorylab1 continuing the @CIHR_IRSC funded RCT led by @jacopocristini that investigates the effects of exercise on sleep in PD.
We are hiring @SayuLabUofU! 2 postdocs in broad topics in #biomechanics (foot-ankle, muscle, energetics, thermoregulation, prosthetics, robotics, footwear). See more info here: https://t.co/JzuboioJ29
Apply before Jan 27. Please spread the word.
If you are interested in health sciences and doing research with Brain Stimulation, we have the summer opportunity for you! Check out this opportunity and lots more here: https://t.co/PtHVhZKOe5
New accepted paper by Ryan D. Burns from @UofU_HK🇺🇲, with @ankevr97 & @BradKing_LMN, who found that more hours of outdoor play were associated with competency in ball bouncing skills in 3-5 year old children
📢Our lab is hiring a lab tech/coordinator to assist with clinical projects involving 1) robotic leg prosthetics, 2) heat dissipation in prosthetic sockets and 3) footwear in older adults. Our lab will be at #ASB2024 - come find us. Apply by Aug 12. https://t.co/9uw6Wg7zDn
The past few weeks have been tiring but so amazing!
- I got to attend @neurostatscamp
- I officially proposed my dissertation project
- I was granted a fellowship that will support me financially during the last year of my Ph.D.
- my first first-author paper was published
Seven to 12-year-old children showed greater gains on a motor sequence task across post-learning periods than older participants, suggesting a developmental advantage in offline motor memory consolidation. @ankevr97@BradKing_LMN@AlbouyGenevieve https://t.co/ZtkdpU8WVb
📢Another keynote to meet! We're thrilled to announce Dr. Bradley King from @UUtah as a keynote speaker at #DCD15_IMDRC6! Join us for his talk on "When children outperform young adults: examinations into the neural underpinnings of childhood advantages in motor learning." 1/6
Come work with me at @UUtah this summer! 🦶👟
I have funding to support a full-time undergrad researcher through the Summer Program for Undergraduate Research. Application deadline Jan 28.

Please share with undergrads you interact with!
In case others find it useful, here’s a Reading List I gave yesterday in my undergrad class “Methods in Cognitive Neuroscience” at @UMontreal
👉 The articles discuss how discriminatory practices & biases can manifest in various aspects of #EEG research & neuroimaging.

I am very excited that the last paper of my PhD is now published in @brainstimj! Here, prefrontal stimulation disrupted fast motor memory consolidation processes. With @DolfenNina, @BradKing_LMN, Edwin Robertson and @AlbouyGenevieve

I'm very excited to share our new preprint! We conducted a behavioral study that provides an exhaustive characterization of motor learning and memory consolidation across the human lifespan. @BradKing_LMN, @AlbouyGenevieve, and Dr. Ryan D. Burns.

It is finally online! In this new article, @AlbouyGenevieve, @DolfenNina, @BradKing_LMN, @ankevr97 and I looked at the influence of sleep on schema-facilitated motor memory integration. Spoiler alert: we didn't find any :')
