New paper in press
“Trial timing and pattern-information analyses of fMRI data”, a paper by Dasa, Alex, and Anisha will be published in Neuroimage.
Lea will join our lab in the fall as a PhD student!!!
We are so lucky to have her!!! To celebrate, we brought her to Falling Sky…
Bamlab at the “Girls’ Science Adventure: Inside Your Brain”
|
Girls in grade 4-6 got an up-close look participated in a neuropsychology adventure day in which members of the UO Women in Graduate Sciences helped them learn all about how human brains work, how they change over time, and what they look like through a brain scan. This event is part of the Science Factory’s Girls’ Science Adventures workshop series. Dasa represented our lab. In addition to our regular outreach kid activities, she brought cute little brain soap for the girls! |
Cait, Stefania, Lea, and Anisha will present posters at CNS!

Meet a scientist at the Science Factory
| Our lab would not have missed “Meet a scientist“, the annual event organized by the Science Factory Museum. Kids participated in an ongoing experiment and helped us display the results on a chart using tiny star stickers. It was fun, but coloring a brain hat remained their favorite activity! |

Brain and Memory lab at 6th Annual SPICE! Science Open House 2016
|
Last September, the Science Program to Inspire Creativity and Excellence (SPICE) and UO STEM CORE held the 6th annual “Science Open House”. Cait, Lea, and Alex were at the Brain and Memory lab’s booth, showing kids what an experiment looks like in our lab. Kids particularly enjoyed seeing their brain activity with our mobile EEG headset! |
Cait and Alex will present posters at SFN!
Cait and Alex will each present a poster at Neuroscience 2016, a Society For Neuroscience conference that will take place in San Diego next November. The title of Cait’s poster is “Neural representations of concepts and exemplars: comparing generalization and recognition”. Alex’s poster is entitled “Trial timing in fMRI designs for pattern information analyses”.
Welcome to our lab Jessie!
