Congrats to @Xinchi_Yu on contributing an Editor’s Choice article 🎉 - a well-deserved recognition! 👏
New research in JEP: Human Perception and Performance from @Xinchi_Yu et al. shows that prior semantic knowledge helps people remember brief glimpses of everyday objects, highlighting how memory and perception work together in daily life. Free-to-read: https://t.co/KhvC3YayOr

When brain lesions blur memories, they sharpen our theories. @yoojchoo et al. show that hippocampal damage supports mixture models of visual working memory, highlighting the limits of simple one-parameter accounts in real neurological data. @Brain1878

Choo et al. investigated how the medial temporal lobe, particularly the hippocampus, supports memory for simple visual features over short delays. They fou

#Neuroimaging crowd, hear me out! 👀 Did you ever want to add #EyeTracking to your #fMRI study but found it too much hassle? Got existing data you’d love to add eye tracking to? Try out *MR-based eye tracking* (i.e. inferring gaze from eye voxels)! A few options below!🧵👇 1/9

New paper out from my lab using cross-study MVPA which shows that the retrieval state is engaged by an attentional task when there are no episodic memory demands

Nature Communications - People are thought to engage a retrieval brain state when they bring to mind past experiences. Here, using multivariate pattern classification analyses across experimental...

The human brain leverages multiple codes to efficiently represent information, such as by organizing the relative timing of neuronal firing within a population of neurons. Learn more about this in our upcoming research article in @Nature!
Our brain uses unique sequences of neurons firing over time within a population activity burst to correctly categorize visual cues. Learn more about it from a paper out today in Nature: https://t.co/Tj74SBSJby

(1/5) Very excited to announce the publication of Bayesian Models of Cognition: Reverse Engineering the Mind. More than a decade in the making, it's a big (600+ pages) beautiful book covering both the basics and recent work: https://t.co/5dnLpcMQzu

Understanding the difference between Standard Deviation (SD) and Standard Error (SE) is crucial for accurate data interpretation. SD measures the variability within your data, indicating how spread out the individual data points are from the mean. In contrast, SE measures the

🌟 Cai Lab @Nature paper alert! In new work led by @mysteriousjoe_, we find that rest periods after learning not only stabilize new memories BUT ALSO integrate new memories with older ones from days past! (1/9) Read it here: https://t.co/Ur8dbGfuP3

Excited to share a new project! 🎉🎉 https://t.co/A36dZL55ar How do we navigate between brain states when we switch tasks? Are dynamics driven by control, or passive decay of the prev task? To answer, we compare high-dim linear dynamical systems fit to EEG and RNNs🌀 ⏬

Great news: The Cognitive Control Collaborative (@IowaControl) is going to be in full effect at #sfn2024 @SfNtweets. Presentation times below. Bad news: As every year, cognitive control is largely relegated to the last day of the conference. Change your travel accordingly 🙂

Different brain regions encode different pain-related information, such as the expectation of pain or the intensity of a stimulus. But where and how is this information integrated? My paper has just been published in @ScienceAdvances! (1/13)
science.org
Neural subspaces and trajectories identified with fMRI reveal a computational mechanism integrating pain cues and stimuli.
