Join us!! Defund science = defund the future. As a proud uncle of many nieces and nephews (and just as a human being), these words ring true - now more than ever.

I wouldn’t be a scientist without the NIH SIP. I was a pre-med going through the motions but my summer at the NIH captivated me & showed me a different path. I was overjoyed when the first trainee from my own lab went last summer & also had a magical experience. This is a devastating loss

How does episodic learning affect the structure of semantic memory? Episodic learning pulls associated words together in semantic space. A cue word's semantic representation moves closer to the target word. Clever use of behavior to understand memory representations! By Walsh & @rissman.bsky.social

Great opportunity for undergrad students at universities without PhD programs. Funding provided for them to do summer research at Emory, and online workshops in fall and spring.

I’m thrilled to share our new study examining how memories take shape under emotional contexts! Using custom musical pieces and a novel affect-tracking tool, we demonstrate that emotion dynamics (especially valence) shape the content and structure of episodic memory. rdcu.be/doK9K
