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 👇

🧠🚨 How does the brain represent what we see? Is visual input transformed to form these representations in similar ways across people and even AI models like DNNs?

We explore these questions using fMRI and large-scale representational alignment analyses.

🧠 Paper out!

We investigated how hippocampal and cortical ripples support memory during movie watching. We found that:

🎬 Hippocampal ripples mark event boundaries
🧩 Cortical ripples predict later recall

Ripples may help transform real-life experiences into lasting memories!

1/2 Just like social groups, human memory is organized in interconnected patterns. Activating one memory can trigger related ones, similar to how information spreads through a community. Could social sharing shape how memories are formed?

Our results reveal the key role of recurrent computations and beta frequency oscillations during the prioritization process in the PFC

How does the brain prioritizes working memory content? By analyzing iEEG recordings in epilepsy patients with RSA and various DNN models, we reveal the distinct signatures of WM maintenance and prioritization in the ventral visual stream and the PFC.
