New preprint 🎉: How do episodic memory, emotions, and schemas for caregiver experiences come together in kids’ brains and verbal recall? Check out our new results showing how past and present childhood experiences shape perception and memory for movies: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Past and present caregiving experiences impact prefrontal connectivity and recall for attachment-schema narratives
We investigated how past and current caregiving experiences impacted emotional event processing by examining inter-subject functional correlation in 7- to 15-year-olds during narrative movies depictin...

Thank you to Ingrid Wickelgren and the team at Quanta for putting together this great piece, describing work by my lab and others on the neural representations of events
New neuroscience research is en route to unlocking a universal human code for recording experiences as memory. What’s their secret weapon? Airport scenes in movies.

How ‘Event Scripts’ Structure Our Personal Memories | Quanta Magazine
By screening films in a brain scanner, neuroscientists discovered a rich library of neural scripts — from a trip through an airport to a marriage proposal — that form scaffolds for memories of our exp...

Binding items to contexts through conjunctive neural representations with the Method of Loci
Schematic prior knowledge can provide a powerful scaffold for episodic memories, yet the neural mechanisms underlying this scaffolding process are still poorly understood. A crucial step of the scaffo...

New preprint led by @huangjiawen.bsky.social: we find that predictable stimuli are better remembered for two separate reasons: making correct predictions improves memory, and likely stimuli can be more easily reconstructed. We can independently manipulate these two factors!

How do we resolve competition between memories to behave adaptively?
Hippocampal differentiation of competing memories predicts the precision of preparatory coding in visual cortex during memory-guided attention
Excited to share this work by the inimitable Serra Favila!
