New paper from the lab just out in Nature Neuroscience “Human hippocampal ripples tune cortical responses based on predicted uncertainty”. Using intracranial EEG recordings, we present a novel perspective on human hippocampal function doi.org/10.1038/s41593-026-0…

Are episodic and semantic memory really that different? Using closely matched tasks, we found no substantial neural differences between recalling personal experiences and general knowledge: nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

In this article, Park et al. find that emotionally arousing moments during a narrative are associated with heightened integration across functional brain networks, which in turn predict how well those moments are subsequently remembered. nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

Our new paper is out in @NatureHumBehav 🎉 During extinction learning, amygdala theta oscillations signal safety, not threat. Similar to episodic memories, extinction memories are stable and context-specific. Check it out 👇 nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

We now have a fully operational Optically-Pumped MEG system, thanks to generous funding from @AgEInves and closely working with @CercaMagnetics. A real pleasure to be visited by @EvaOrtegaPaino, Secretary General for Research at @cienciagob, on the 1st day we are operational

As part of our #neurotechnology collection, this Essay by @uma_r_mohan & @neurojosh discusses why brain stimulation for memory loss shows variable success, and suggests developing customized stimulation protocols for more consistent memory enhancement. plos.io/4eayRmZ

When we anticipate the future, the brain shows graded representations of the future & past. The scale of these representations increases systematically from lower- to higher-order regions. Proud of this work by @hannahtstoll, a collab w/ @ChrisBaldassano! nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Delighted to announce our latest work in @NatureHumBehav. While watching movies, theta phase precession is triggered by cognitive boundaries. Strength of precession predicts strength of memory formed. @Zjmay1 @gkreiman @CedarsSinai @CaltechN nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

At @SfNtweets I’ll also be presenting my main PhD project with @The_Strange_Lab ! If you want to discuss some really interesting iEEG results on how the medial temporal lobe processes spatial frequencies, drop by my poster U35 on October 9th 3-4pm 🧠

Interested in an accessible review of active intentional and intentional forgetting in the laboratory and everyday life? Check our new paper now out in Nature Reviews Psychology!
A Review in @NatRevPsych describes intentional and unintentional forgetting, highlights alignment across these traditionally siloed research areas, and explores the role of forgetting in certain clinical conditions. 🔒 go.nature.com/4cXEBQt
