Sat 1pm Room N228: How does the use of memory in decisions develop across childhood and adolescence?
@noraharhen.bsky.social and Prof. Catherine Hartley find that children + teens sample individual memories during decisions, but associative structure use develops later. #sfn2024

Fri C86: Small differences can have big consequences. How are similar experiences distinguished in memory? Dale Zhou proposes that perceptual and semantic information is lossily compressed and efficiently coded to support pattern separation #CCN2024 (5/5)

Find yourself in Oxford this coming Monday? Antsy for some critical, considered, sometimes even comedic thoughts on consciousness?! Join the esteemed Dr. Patrick House at 6pm at Blackwell's. Only £5, which I believe is even cheaper than a fish and "chips"?

Congrats to Dr. Nidhi Banavar on a successful PhD defense (the lab's first)! We're sad to see her go, but looking forward to what her revealing knife of inquiry unveils in future work with Kirk Bansak @ UC Berkeley. Best of luck! 🖖
