Do our thoughts have ā€˜momentum’? Consider a recent conversation that keeps popping into your thoughts during a work meeting. Or, the events of a story that lingers well after you put a book down/finish a movie. We also use phrases like ā€œstuck in my headā€ or ā€œon my mindā€.

One of the lab's original Day 1 "dream" projects is now out as a preprint! Using a custom set of stories with fMRI, we showed that top-down attention can shift mPFC event boundaries to align with different kinds of narrative boundaries biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

I’m excited to announce our new preprint -- Neural codes track prior events in a narrative and predict subsequent memory for details! URL: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Norman Lab

New paper with Sarah Hye-yeon Lee, Brynn Sherman, and Anna Papafragou, in which we explore how people's mental timelines are shaped by event structure -- using popular TV shows to examine shared memories across months and even *years*! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Excited about this paper looking at the intersection of storytelling and decision-making. From an amazing trainees’ love for improv and psychology a new line of research emerged. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… w/ janice chen Helen Schmidt and X-less Chelsea Helion and Devlin Eckardt.

Our retrodicting vs predicting movie events paper is finally out! We didn't think about "conversation" at first, but it turns out that conversation references play a major role in how we "infer" unobserved events in other people's lives.

Excited to see our new paper out. Our Durham IAS interdisciplinary project offers new thoughts on what context in memory is and what it is not: Context in memory is reconstructed, not encoded sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @aidanhorner James Ainge John Sutton Simon John James

Big shouts to the collaborative work with Nai Ding on line at Nature Human Behaviour, demonstrating 1D-to-2D hierarchical reorganization in human sequence working memory. Congrats to Ying Fan and Muzhi! nature.com/articles/s4156…

1/7šŸ“– Just published: our paper uncovers universal patterns in how we recall stories! As narratives grow longer, our recall shows scale-invariance—leading to emergent semantic abstraction. Curious? Check out our animated illustration & read on! #Memory #CognitiveScience #Physics

Excited to share our new work in Nature Communications . Introducing a "comprehensive exploration" model that uncovers all mechanisms of visual working memory in one framework, built from a single large-scale controlled experiment. doi.org/10.1038/s41467…

By screening films in a brain scanner, neuroscientists discovered a rich library of neural scripts — from a trip through an airport to a marriage proposal — that form scaffolds for memories of our experiences. Ingrid Wickelgren reports: quantamagazine.org/how-event-scri…
