Rugg & Renoult review the cognitive neuroscience of episodic memory representations. Active representations must have a causal link to a past event to count as a memory, the basis for this linkage is the reinstatement framework. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
New episode out now! On this special episode, we honor the life & legacy of Dr. Eleanor Maguire. Dr. Michael Rugg, Director of the CVL, joins us for a heartfelt reflection on her pioneering work & enduring influence.

We honor the legacy of Dr. Eleanor Maguire, a visionary cognitive neuroscientist whose work transformed our understanding of memory, imagination, and navigation. Dr. Michael Rugg joins us to reflect on her groundbreaking research and lasting impact. Stay tuned for the full episode!
Scatter plots showing the strength and direction of any relationships between volume and reinstatement effects in the parahippocampal, medial, and occipital place areas.
I'm thrilled that my first first-author paper in @fnim-lab.bsky.social is now out!
We found that whole-brain cortical volume predicted the strength of neural reinstatement of scene information in the parahippocampal and medial place areas (PPA & MPA in the figure below). (1/2)
Strikingly, we also found that cortical volume fully mediated the commonly observed association between age and reinstatement in these regions, meaning differences in reinstatement were explained by cortical volume, independently of age.

New preprint! We found that age differences in the neural reinstatement of scene information are fully mediated by whole-brain cortical volume. We also found that reinstatement strength in the parahippocampal place area was associated with memory performance independently of volume and age.

Excited to share our new paper in Neurobiology of Aging! Kidwai et al found that recollection-related fMRI effects in the entorhinal cortex were predictive of memory change over 3 years in healthy older adults, when controlling for age and entorhinal volume. doi.org/10.1016/j.ne...
