🧠📖 New paper out! How does the brain make sense of a story?

Combining behavioral data, #fMRI, and #LLMs, our study explores how distinct hippocampal-cortical systems support the #encoding and #sequencing of #narrative events during ongoing comprehension.

🧠 Paper out!

We investigated how hippocampal and cortical ripples support memory during movie watching. We found that:

🎬 Hippocampal ripples mark event boundaries
🧩 Cortical ripples predict later recall

Ripples may help transform real-life experiences into lasting memories!

Movie-watching evokes ripple-like activity within events and at event boundaries
Nature Communications - The neural processes involved in memory formation for realistic experiences remain poorly understood. Here, the authors found that ripple-like activity in the human...

Finally,😃 the first project during the Ph.D. program is published in PLOS Biology. We examined the spatiotemporal brain dynamics of context and sensory information integration in pain.
Thanks to my advisor @choongwanwoo.bsky.social and co-authors Seok-Jun Hong and Elizabeth Losin. plos.io/4fsaanu

How does the hippocampus integrate multiple cognitive processes for memory encoding and retrieval?🧠

Here’s what we found⬇️:
Coordinated representations for naturalistic memory encoding and retrieval in hippocampal neural subspaces - Nature Communications
In this study, the authors show that novelty encoding aligns with memory formation in the hippocampus but not with memory retrieval, and that hippocampal components involved in each process reflect it...

New preprint out! 🚀
Our latest work on Motion-Corrected Eye Tracking (MoCET) is now available on bioRxiv! We introduce a method to improve gaze accuracy in fMRI experiments using head motion correction.

Check it out here: doi.org/10.1101/2025...

#EyeTracking #fMRI
Motion-corrected eye tracking (MoCET) improves gaze accuracy during visual fMRI experiments
Human eye movements are essential for understanding cognition, yet achieving high-precision eye tracking in fMRI remains challenging. Even slight head shifts from the initial calibration position can ...

Proud of my first contribution to memory research: “Brain and eye movement dynamics track the transition from learning to memory-guided action” out in @currentbiology.bsky.social, great team effort together with Janina Klingspohr, Marcel Kehl & Bernhard Staresina.

Just finished a draft of my Models of Memory (grad) course that I'm teaching this spring! Please share/borrow/re-use/follow along as desired, and if you have feedback or suggestions I'd really love to hear (especially while I can still change it)!
