I am leading a workshop tonight for students in my department on how to apply for the NSF GRFP, but have not received answers from NSF to my questions about whether they are still funding applications in neuroscience and cognitive science, etc. If anyone has info please let me know.

New Preprint with @timbrady.bsky.social and @violastoermer.bsky.social : www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here we show increased neural delay activity associated with remembering features as part of real-world objects. 1/
Real-world objects scaffold visual working memory for features: Increased neural delay activity when colors are remembered as part of meaningful objects
Visual working memory is a core cognitive function that allows active storage of task-relevant visual information. While previous studies have postulated that the capacity of this system is fixed with...

New paper out in Nature Neuro, wherein we ask:

How do perceptual and mnemonic brain networks share information?

Massive work with Ed Silson, Brenda Garcia, and @carolinerobertson.bsky.social
A retinotopic code structures the interaction between perception and memory systems - Nature Neurosc...
The authors show that functionally paired visual and memory brain areas share a common neural code, which structures their communication. This code is visual in nature and uses a push–pull dynamic t...
