this might be more a of Twitter-heyday-era throwback, but for folks coming to #SfN25 my lab has 2 awesome posters on Sat 1-5pm! In GG2 we look at the impact of contextual overlap on brain activity patterns & in HH5 we try to understand why overlapping information can sometimes help vs hurt learning

🧠 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!
