Family Feud: Grad Student Edition We are looking to survey as many trainees (RAs, grad students, post-docs) attending SANS as we can to complete the following survey. Your results will be part of a "family feud" style game show at COM...

Are you a trainee at #SANS2026 or a trainee in social or affective neuroscience. Fill out this quick survey to help with a game at COMICSANS. More data = better games.

Wow, this is so fun! Really cool concept - you're going to have so much great data!

Knowledge Mapper An interactive tool that maps out everything you know. Answer questions and watch your personalized knowledge map take shape.

Curious what a representation of "everything" you know might look like? Wonder how you might fill it in?

Check out our demo and paper (led by @paxt0n4.bsky.social and now out in @natcomms.nature.com ), or read on to learn more!

AI companies will fail. We can salvage something from the wreckage | Cory Doctorow AI is asbestos in the walls of our tech society, stuffed there by monopolists run amok. A serious fight against it must strike at its roots

Utterly brilliant writing by Cory and so rare to see any critical thought so well expressed.

ICOM7, International Conference on Memory. 26th-30th July 2027. Glasgow, Scottish Exhibition & Conference Centre (SEC)

Save the date for ICOM-7 (aka the Memory Olympics)

New year, new beginnings - we're on our way to UCLA! @ajaysatpute.bsky.social

Asking informally: does anyone know someone who might be interested in a postdoc focused on understanding changes in memory representations driven by attention using EEG? ⚡️Thanks!

Did you know that Claude can work with PowerPoint files? I just had it add and clean up speaker notes for a set of lecture slides and it worked amazingly well. 😍

Representing the MemoLab at Psychonomics, Valentina Krenz will be presenting tomorrow, poster II-153, on the effects of retrieval practice on memory precision 🌠

I am recruiting a postdoc at UC Santa Barbara for an NIH-funded project on the organization of lateral PFC function--across emotion and cognition--using representational fMRI & TMS. I’d love to find someone w/ a background in cognitive control & computational modeling to complement our team! 🏝️ 🧠 🧲

I will be recruiting 🌟PhD students🌟 for my newish lab! If you're interested in learning & memory mechanisms applied to individual, interactive & collective behavior using computational modeling, real-world experiments and fMRI, email me! RTs much appreciated 🙏 rouhanilab.com

Congratulations! What an exciting move!!

A neural network with episodic memory learns causal relationships between narrative events Humans reflect on past memories to make sense of an ongoing event. Past work has shown that people retrieve causally related past events during comprehension, but the exact process by which this causa...

How does the brain🧠 make causal inferences and use memories to understand narratives🎬?

We built an RNN🤖 with key-value episodic memory that learns causal relationships between events and retrieves memories like humans do!

Supermoon | Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams Supermoon is a dreamy blend of two marshmallow flavors. The yellow half is classic marshmallow, while the blue half is candied violet — which Jeni has always thought tastes like cereal marshmallows.

@UCLA is a global leader in research, innovation, education, and healthcare. The federal government’s $1B demand would devastate the nation’s top public research university, cut off life-saving care, and halt tech and economic growth. #StandUpForUC bit.ly/standuc

If you think cuts to funding science is somehow caught up in the “culture wars that have nothing to do with science,” you are missing the point. The entire project of education as a public good is under threat, and a threat to one university is a threat to all. We have to stand together #UCLAResist
