New paper out now in PNAS with Vishnu Murty & Ben Rottman! We found that the benefits of the spacing effect on item and associative memory depend on the variability in the mnemonic content and the timescale of the spacing intervals pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Work now out at SfN Journals JNeuro, great job by postdoc Seth Koslov and thanks to collaborator Joe Kable. jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Thanks, great summary! Check out our new #JNeurosci paper w/Brett L. Foster + Joe Kable where we use the amazing Natural Scenes Dataset (thnx cvnlab+team) to identify distinct medial parietal regions responsive to recognition-decisions vs. semantic content jneurosci.org/content/early/…

Folks, I have a recent grad from Gaza looking for an opportunity to work as a researcher anywhere that can accommodate him. Earned his degree in biotechnology last year (from Islamic Uni. of Gaza), competent in molecular biology and python. Please dm or email me for his CV and contact info.

🚨 Job alert! My new lab at Binghamton University is hiring a full-time lab manager ("assistant"). This is a great fit for a recent grad looking for cog/comp neuro research experience before grad school. Details & job link below, and feel free to reach out with questions!

Amazing opportunity to be a lab manager in Sarah Solomon's new lab!!

This Week in The Journal #JNeurosci | How Sleep Transforms Our Memories; Investigating the Neurophysiology of Visual Crowding jneurosci.org/content/44/24/…

Super excited to share this one, out now in J Neuro! Memory reactivation during sleep does not act holistically on object memory. Led by the amazing Elizabeth Siefert!!

Thrilled to have had the opportunity to write about our recent @PNAS paper for Scientific American Scientific American! with Vishnu Murty Ben Rottman and Yiwen Zhang scientificamerican.com/article/the-be…

Honored to finally announce the best news I’ve gotten in my PhD so far- I have been awarded the NINDS F99/K00 D-SPAN!!!! My first fellowship(!) & first grant of many as I work towards starting my own lab investigating neural mechanisms of visceral pain. (Thread!!)

We are hiring 2 RAs in the AML (now at University of Oregon) with an anticipated start date of late summer/early fall. I promise it will be a fun place to study motivation, affect, and memory! Find more info about the position in the ad below, and a link to apply in the thread.

Thrilled to share our preprint introducing ComBatLS, a new data harmonization method that preserves covariates’ (e.g. age and sex) effects on variance! (1/2) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Happy to see this out in Association for Psychological Science! For us adults, what we learn is filtered by our goals and the task-at-hand. In contrary, we find that children learn the same regardless if they are trying to attend or not! Kids just take it all in. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/09…

Interested in a PhD in Neuroscience? Join us in-person or virtually for a #PennNGG admissions info session on October 17 at 5:30 pm EST! 👉Registration open now: tinyurl.com/NGGInfo2024 We can’t wait to see you there!
