The Effects of External Cue Overlap and Internal Goals on Selective Memory Retrieval as Revealed by Electroencephalographic (EEG) Neural Pattern Reinstatement

This EEG study used multivariate decoding in humans to investigate how memories are selected when retrieval goals vary. The results showed that EEG neural patterns reinstating studied information tra...

So it turns out that laser tag is an appropriate/popular social activity for an AI research group! Congratulations to the Connect lab of @drtnowotny.bsky.social on their victory in the inaugural AI research laser zone cup! Thanks also to the Buckley lab for coming joint second with us

One of several opportunities to come and do a PhD in our lab! Happy to discuss supervision in all things MRI analysis

Our Sussex Neuroscience 4-year PhD Programme is open for applications! Deadline Jan 13th, for Sept 2025 entry. Brilliant community of students and supervisors, and a choice of >60 labs for rotations- come and join us by the sea! www.sussex.ac.uk/research/cen...

Over the last year or so I've been reading a lot more papers digging into why deep learning is effective. It is counterintuitive for students learning about ML that phenomena like double descent and grokking are not fully explained despite us having access to the model weights and training dynamics!
