Proud this work by my very smart and driven PhD student is now published. Detecting replay is hard and we still need to refine the method.
Only 6 days left to register for the early bird price. For only 90 € you get three days of networking on topics of memory and sleep.
Our latest work, on modeling the human brain responses to sight, sound and language at scale:
Have you ever wondered why mice do what they do when they are free to do whatever they want? Check out our latest (and this slightly delayed thread about our recent paper, led by Caleb Weinreb and friends...) www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...

Screenshot of giving page. Department chair gave $150, I gave $10
I think it's weird when my employer asks me to donate money. 🤷♂️ But I usually contribute because we get "credit" for department participation and I try to be a team player.

New lab paper! We built a new computational model that explains several disparate observations about the conditions that promote (or hinder) associative learning. Main finding is that different kinds of experience (blocked, interleaved) have opposing effect at high vs low memory capacity. 🧵 below!
🚨NEW PREPRINT (w/ Fleming Peck & Hongjing Lu)
"Spontaneous emergence of context-dependent statistical learning in humans and neural networks"
We are constantly predicting what will happen next. Yet the same cue can lead to different predictions depending on context.
How might this work...? 🧵1/8
