Hippocampal-cortical networks predict conceptual versus perceptually guided narrative memory
Current theories of event memory propose distinct connections between the hippocampus and neocortical regions, particularly those within the default mode network (DMN) subsystems, to support processin...

🆕➡️ ICYMI on Twitter, collaborators and I have recently introduced ✨FOAMS: Free Open Access Misophonia Stimuli✨, a solution to the barriers of incorporating misophonic trigger sounds in experimental research!

All made possible by funding from soQuiet.org🙏🏻
