Cait and Stefania presented their posters at the 2019 conference of the Society of Neuroscience! See below for their posters:
Ashby, S. R., Bowman, C. R., & Zeithamova, D. (2019). Generalized memory representations emerge across paired-associate training. Poster presented at the Society for Neuroscience conference 2019, Chicago, IL. PDF
Bowman, C. R., Iwashita, T., & Zeithamova, D. (2019). Neural representations underlying acquisition of category knowledge. Poster presented at the Society for Neuroscience conference 2019, Chicago, IL. PDF
BAM Lab at SPICE Open House :-)
Brain and Memory lab participated in the annual Science Open House of the Science Program to Inspire Creativity and Excellence (SPICE)! We had different booths with visual illusion demos, the brain, memory experiment demos, and etc. Our table was popular among children who were excited about science.

Annie, Katelyn, and Madeleine joined our lab
Annie Rian
Annie is an undergraduate psychology major in her final year. She’s interested in the effects of traumatic stress on the brain, and plans to work as a therapist specializing in PTSD in combat vets.
Katelyn Schroeder
Katelyn is a senior at the University of Oregon, majoring in psychology and minoring in business administration. Her interests include cognitive neuroscience and developmental psychology, specifically relating to early intervention for childhood trauma. She plans to attend graduate school after finishing undergrad.
Madeleine Eustis
Madeleine is a student at the University of Oregon and is majoring in psychology and minoring in women’s gender and sexuality studies. She interested in developmental neuroscience and how memory relates to culture.
Ben, our new graduate student!
|
Ben received his B.A. in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago. He worked in the UIC Memory Lab as a Research Assistant studying memory and future thinking with Dr. Karl Szpunar. He joined the Brain and Memory Lab in the fall of 2019. His primary research interests are in memory and consciousness, specifically studying the neural mechanisms that enable memory integration and complex memory formation. |
Oliver presented at ASE 2019!
Oliver presented his summer work at 2019 ASE conference!
