I'm excited to share a new review paper with @morganbarense on the role of sleep in autobiographical memory out now in Current Sleep Medicine Reports. (1/2) link.springer.com/article/10.100…

I am excited to share that our paper is now published in Nature Human Behavior! Check it out here: rdcu.be/e6pzS. Thanks to my PI, Katherine Duncan, and to my collaborators for their support on this journey! Stay tuned for an iEEG follow up 🧠

SEEING THROUGH YOUR EYES 👁️: Excited to share our new paper (which is out now!!) with Wenbo Tang, @annabellaWulf, @ThokozileNyasu, @Madisonewolf, @antferrui @azayhara : we discovered a novel sleep microstructure that promotes memory replay! nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧵 1/12👇

Congratulations to Remy Mallett – you did it!!! New Strategies for the Cognitive Science of Dreaming (AKA Dream Research 2.0), out now in Trends in Cognitive Sciences cell.com/trends/cogniti…

At #sfn2024 ? Come check out our posters! We're covering hippocampal timescales, memory malleability, sleep's effects on autobiographical memory, and medial temporal lobe volume and visual discrimination in MCI.

Come visit my #sfn2024 poster on how hippocampal deep brain stimulation guides eye movements during naturalistic visual search! Sunday Oct 6, 8:00am-12:00pm, D20, MPC Hall A. In Active Vision in Gaze and Locomotion Control.

Attending #sfn2024? Start strong by visiting my poster during the first afternoon poster session on 10/5! Board T11, Human Reward Learning session, 1-5 PM. Come learn about how motivation shapes reinforcement learning, memory, and activation in neuromodulatory regions! @SfNtweets

Come visit my poster on how memory age and strength impact reactivation-driven memory updating for complex episodic memories at #SfN24! Excited to share some new data on this project. Sunday 8am-Noon, Board N35 at MCP Hall A. @SfNtweets

Come visit my poster on how sleep and dreaming impact autobiographical memory at SfN! I'll be presenting some new data on memory richness, emotion, decontextualization, and integration. Board V5 at 8 AM - 12 PM on Tuesday, October 8th at MCP Hall A. #SfN24 @SfNtweets

Excited to share our latest work at SfN, where we use a novel fMRI measure to capture the dynamic nature of neural timescales in the hippocampus. Sneak peek (sans results 😉) below. Stop by at Board O35 in MCP Hall A on Saturday from 1–5 pm to learn more! #SfN24 @SfNtweets

5/ We also explored whether sleep preferentially consolidated memory for drawn or written words in controls. We found that sleep benefited memory for only written words, suggesting that sleep preferentially consolidates memories that are more dependent on the hippocampal system.

4/ We suggest that amnesic patients may benefit from drawing due to the recruitment of brain regions outside of the hippocampal system for encoding and consolidation.

1/ Our new paper investigating whether drawing can benefit memory in CT, a young woman with a unique case of sleep-related amnesia, in now out in Memory & Cognition! @morganbarense @melellen_m @jordanstarenky link.springer.com/article/10.375…

Overall, sleep is important in maintaining our ability to retrieve specific and positive autobiographical memories. In addition, there is preliminary evidence that slow-wave sleep and sleep quality are associated with greater detail and accuracy for recent memories. (2/2)

@stf_simpson Thanks Stephanie!

Go @NMatorina !

Our paper with showing that memory control improves immediate emotions of autobiographical memories just got published. Massive thanks to @RHellerstedt, @Memory_Control @zara_bergstrom 🙏😁 doi.org/10.1080/026999…

Looking forward to giving a talk on the consolidation of autobiographical memories this year!

Going to #CNS2024? Into naturalistic memory? Stop by my poster (B155) on Sunday at 8am! In this study w/ @rosanna_olsen @Brad_Buchsbaum & @morganbarense, I tested memory in younger+older adults on an ONLINE staged event in which participants & I played games & watched videos 😃
