5/5 This highlights the need for brain-state-dependent stimulation protocols in future studies.

[Danying Wang @WangDanying]

1/5 What factors could affect the effectivity of rhythmic sensory stimulation (RSS) in improving episodic memory performance? Our (@EleonoraMarcant @Kimron_Shapiro @SimonHanslmayr) latest preprint might offer some answers: https://t.co/md2mOtSKSV

4/5 The decrease in pre-stimulus alpha power was also linked to subsequent memory success. Our findings suggest that brain state - particularly alpha activity might be a vital factor inducing the variability in RSS effectiveness.

NEW: In this Registered Report, @fatih_srn_ @WangDanying @DrMattDavis @rikhens (@mrccbu) attempted to replicate past research on the theta-induced memory effect to find out whether theta synchronicity of sensory information enhances associative memory

A paper in @NatureNeuro reports of non-invasive deep brain stimulation in the human hippocampus using temporal interference of kHz electric fields. The study shows the method can enhance the accuracy of episodic memories in healthy humans. https://t.co/0wSd2trfOZ

Just published! 🥁
Hippocampal neurons reinstate specific episodic memories in humans. These Episode Specific Neurons are independent of Concept Neurons or Time Cells and code the conjunction of elements that make up the event.

@YaliPan2 Thanks Yali!🩷

[Danying Wang @WangDanying]

I would like to also thank our reviewers who suggested the analysis to link the empirical data to the computational model.

[Danying Wang @WangDanying]

This is out now in @CurrentBiology! (link: https://t.co/pmDer1suTu) Additionally, we show that the STDP model simulated high synaptic weight trials had stronger ITPC than low-weight trials. (1/2)

[Danying Wang @WangDanying]

Ever wondered whether spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) plays a role in human episodic memory? In our new preprint we @Kimron_Shapiro & @SimonHanslmayr present behavioural evidence in a human episodic memory experiment that is consistent with STDP. Here’s how we did it:

Huge thanks to @SimonHanslmayr @Kimron_Shapiro!

New preprint by the wonderful @Chloe33455. This is the first time in my lab that we looked at beta oscillations as discrete bursts. I was surprised by the clarity of the results. As if a veil was lifted …

New paper @TheCHBH🎉our oculomotor & visual systems must go hand-in-hand in reading, this coordination is clocked by alpha phase, especially when processing difficult words (e.g., low-frequency words).
Big thanks to my brilliant collaborators @neuosc,@TzvetanPopov,Steven Frisson
