Do you work or study in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, computer science, artificial intelligence, or philosophy?
What does 'representation' mean to you?
We invite you to participate in a brief survey on conceptual questions across fields.

Infantile #amnesia limits our recall of early-life memories, but what is its cellular basis?
@erikasstewart from @RyanLabTCD & @tcddublin reveals that #microglia regulate infant memory retrieval in mice during postnatal development.

Microglia Activity in the Brain Drives Infantile Amnesia in Young Mice
According to the data, when microglia activity in the brain was suppressed, baby mice were better able to recall fearful experiences

#ListerFellow@TJRyan_77 on his fascinating research into memory engrams and the importance of forgetting 👇
🧠Recommended easy listening for a long, winter walk (but hurry before that snow hits ❄️⛄️)

Recent discussion on Brain Ponderings with the singular Mark Mattson.
We discussed current ideas on engrams, and the adaptive functions of forgetting.

Concluding 2025 with a thread on one of our most recent manuscripts at @RyanLabTCD
"Extinction and subsequent updating of innate fear responses to a visual looming stimulus rely on hippocampus-dependent mechanisms"
