New publication in eLife! doi.org/10.7554/eLife.… @eLife Single neurons don’t just communicate with other nearby neurons — they can synchronize with faraway activity too! In humans, the firing of neurons throughout the MTL, synchronizes to the hippocampal theta rhythm (1–10 Hz).

New paper with @MemoryLab, @david_j_halpern! Free-recall paradigms are commonly used to study memory in lab settings. How do the reliability and validity of these lab-based paradigms compare with traditional neuropsychological memory measures? Check here: psycnet.apa.org/record/2024-18…

In the moments leading up to a spontaneous recollection, we were able to use neural signals to discern between correct and false memories about to be retrieved. Check out our new paper, now out in PNAS! @PNASNews ! 1/7 pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

New preprint with @MemoryLab! 📜🧠 Leveraging EEG recordings and machine learning, we designed a system to guide learning in a memory task -- modifying stimulus timing to present items when they were predicted to "stick" in a person's memory doi.org/10.1101/2023.0… 1/

We used classifiers to predict memory performance over multiple items and track internal memory encoding states at the scale of minutes, arguing that the associated neural signal likely reflects a causal SME.

Proud to report @jjsakon's new paper has been published in @PNASNews! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… We find hippocampal--but not extrahippocampal MTL--high frequency ripples reflect the retrieval of *episodic* memories. This phenomenon is consistent with...(1/3)

...where we find ripples specifically occur when people form *episodic* memories. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… That is, ripples during word encoding promote participants subsequently recalling that word and others related to it via episodic reinstatement. It's quite a story!(3/3)

...ripples mediating an item-to-context process, since ripples occur significantly more when participants recall clusters of words with temporal and/or semantic relationships. Our follow-up manuscript--now on @biorxivpreprint--investigates ripples during memory formation...(2/3)
