Episodic memory encoding fluctuates at a theta rhythm of 3–10 Hz Nature Human Behaviour - Biba et al. show that episodic memory encoding fluctuates at a theta rhythm of 3–10 Hz.

I am excited to share my first paper, showing that episodic memory formation is theta rhythmic, is now published in Nature Human Behavior! Check it out here: rdcu.be/e6pzS. Thanks to my PI, Katherine Duncan, and to my collaborators for their support on this journey! Stay tuned for iEEG follow up 🧠

We're also excited about the mechanistic explanation this work starts to provide for why early caregiver predictability is linked to long-term cognitive outcomes in children!

8 months ago 2 0 0 0

Most exciting to me, in each dyad, infants look most at their caregiver when she is being moderately predictable relative to herself. This shows an infant's own, unique experience with the statistics of their environment shapes the development of early attention and learning processes.

8 months ago 2 0 1 0

We measured caregiver unpredictability (entropy) by hand-annotating hundreds of videos of caregivers interacting naturally with their babies, and then found that the predictable structure of caregiver's behavior shapes infants moment-to-moment attention during dyadic interaction.
