@martamasilva.bsky.socialEpisodic memory forms through action: gaze shifts sequentially sample experience as it unfolds 👀🏞️ 🧠 But actions may also help organize how the brain reactivates episodic memories! 👀🧠💭 🏞️ Check out our new preprint 👇 doi.org/10.64898/202... 🎉 @tobiasstaudigl.bsky.social & Aditya Chowdhury 👇🧵
Show PostI am so grateful to my supervisor @tobiasstaudigl.bsky.social my office buddies and everyone who supported me through this chapter. Excited for what's next: finding a postdoc in human brain data & cognition, curious about all the ways to stimulate the brain! Know of any opportunities? #PostdocSearch
Show PostFinally a Dr.🎓(well, once my certificate is printed 😄) A few weeks ago, I defended my thesis, and shortly after, graduated from GSN @lmu.de! I learned so much on this journey, not only about how action structures episodic memory (preprint coming soon!) but that persistence is key😄 #PhD #Neuroscience
