PhD student in cognitive neuroscience at University of Münster and Lund University. Working on episodic memory updating after prediction errors. Also interested in future thinking and social influences on memory.
We secured a grant from Lund University, allowing us to invite two collaborators, Karine Malyesheva and Illia Zarubin, from Taras Shevchenko University Kyiv for a week. Great discussions on future possibilities.

That was an exciting week with NAC (Natural and Artificial Cognition) and the SweCog (Swedish Cognition) conference in Lund!🤩
We had the opportunity to present our research on eye tracking and multi tasking, social inferences, how our brain extracts specifics and gist, and war memories in Ukraine.

It was great to present my poster on distinct encoding after large predictions errors at ICON last week. Thanks to all who passed by to have a chat (i.e., shouting at each other at the top of one‘s lungs).

New Paper Out!
Why do some prediction errors (PEs) lead to changes in episodic memories and others do not?
Our new research supports the idea that the size of the episodic PE plays a crucial role in shaping mnemonic and neural outcomes.
These are the 4 most important results:

It was great to present this work for the first time - and looking forward to doing this again at @officialsarmac.bsky.social in Ireland next week!
He also gave an oral presentation on how event outcomes influence the relationship between future thinking and remembering. Participants changed their assessment of how important elections were depending on whether the elections went their way or not - showing strong self-serving biases.

Marius @mariusboeltzig.bsky.social presented his poster on the influence of prediction error size on memory - showing that large prediction errors lead to distinct encoding of new episodes, while keeping old ones intact.
