I want to draw attention to a special issue that Lila Davachi and I put together to memorialize our friend and colleague Sarah DuBrow. It’s full of papers inspired by her work and her being from a group of collaborators, friends, and fans! Thanks @bradpostle.bsky.social for helping make this happen.

When are our memories integrated or fragmented? In our new review, Krystian Loetscher and I consider how stress and alcohol influence memory binding. Check it out as well as the rest of the exciting Stress and Alcohol special issue of Neurobio Stress! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38375503/

Thanks, and very cool paper! We focused on episodic memory for that study, but do discuss your findings in pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37390333/ and a new paper under review (stay tuned!)

Thanks for the q! Some thoughts - cort resp can differ w challenge/threat appraisal, so would help to test multiple cort levels (we only used 1 dosage). Notable that our subj didn't "feel" stressed (or even know what pill they took!) so def need more work on stress affect/appraisal fx on hipp

So excited to have this out - congrats co-auths @brynnsherman.bsky.social, Bailey Harris, Nick Turk-Browne, and Rajita Sinha!

Stress tends to enhance memory for emotional events. Yet stress is also thought to hurt the hippocampus (which supports episodic memory). With @evgoldfarb.bsky.social & others, we explore this paradox and demonstrate how cortisol can *enhance* hippocampal function to support emotional episodic mems!
Hippocampal mechanisms support cortisol-induced memory enhancements
Stress can powerfully influence episodic memory, often enhancing memory encoding for emotionally salient information. These stress-induced memory enhancements stand at odds with demonstrations that st...
