Symposia
Symposium Session 1 - The rhythms of recollection in the human hippocampus
Sunday, March 21, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salons A-E
Chair: L Joel Voss1 (joelvoss@uchicago.edu); 1University of Chicago
This symposium unites four lines of intracranial human research to examine how hippocampal oscillations organize memory across spatial, temporal, semantic, and behavioral dimensions. Memory is coordin… View More…
Symposium Session 2 - Mind and machine: neural and behavioral dynamics of AI involvement
Sunday, March 21, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salon F
Chairs: Youngbin Kwak1 (youngbin@umass.edu) & Roya Mohammadsadegh1 (rmohammadsad@umass.edu); 1University of Massachusetts Amherst
As artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly integrates into daily life, a central question for cognitive neuroscience is how interacting with artificial systems reshapes human cognition and our sense… View More…
Symposium Session 3 - Construction zone ahead – building abstract task representations in the prefrontal cortex
Sunday, March 21, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salons G-K
Chair: Jacob Miller1 (jacob.miller@miami.edu); 1University of Miami
The prefrontal cortex is critical for high-level, adaptive behavior to survive and thrive in structured, everyday contexts like commuting – making the correct order of turns, controlling our emo… View More…
Symposium Session 4 - Bridging Scales in Episodic Memory Research: From Comparative Neuroanatomy to Cognitive Theory
Monday, March 22, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm, Salons A-E
Chairs: Daniel Reznik1,2 (daniel.reznik@ndcn.ox.ac.uk) & Charan Ranganath3 (cranganath@ucdavis.edu); 1Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience (NTNU), 2University of Oxford, 3UC Davis
Recent years have provided important breakthroughs in episodic memory research, originating in traditionally disconnected fields of inquiry. Integrating these bleeding-edge discoveries and novel insig… View More…
Symposium Session 5 - Attention, Gaze, and Speech Processing During Learning Across the Lab-to-Classroom Continuum
Monday, March 22, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm, Salon F
Chairs: Yimeng Wang1 (yimengw@umass.edu) & Lisa D. Sanders1 (lsanders@umass.edu); 1University of Massachusetts Amherst
Cognitive neuroscience research has specified the ways in which perceptual processing, auditory and visual attention, and engagement influence learning outcomes. However, most of this research has bee… View More…
Symposium Session 6 - Artificial minds, human brains: Is AI a paradigm shift in cognitive neuroscience?
Monday, March 22, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm, Salons G-K
Chair: Shahar Arzy1 (shahar.arzy@gmail.com); 1Hebrew University, 2Hadassah Medical Center
AI is no longer on the horizon of cognitive neuroscience. It has arrived. From conceptual thinking to daily use, its impact is undeniable. But does it fundamentally change how we think about the mind … View More…
Symposium Session 7 - Representational change in the hippocampus: How task structure, development, and learning objectives impact differentiation and integration
Tuesday, March 23, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salons A-E
Chairs: Samuel Lippl1 (sfc.lippl@gmail.com) & Anna Schapiro2 (aschapir@sas.upenn.edu); 1Columbia University, 2University of Pennsylvania
To adapt rapidly to new environments, we need to both distinguish between related events and generalize across them. The hippocampus plays an important role in both of these abilities, by differentiat… View More…
Symposium Session 8 - From vision to vocabulary: a multi-disciplinary investigation of reading
Tuesday, March 23, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salon F
Chairs: Dr Ian Chris Baker1 (bakerchris@mail.nih.gov) & Joseph Salvo1 (salvojj@nih.gov); 1National Institute of Mental Health
Reading is a complex process that requires successful integration of several difficult abilities. Precise eye movements flood the visual system with written information, while rapid visual and linguis… View More…
Symposium Session 9 - Multiscale Dynamics of Cognitive Processes from M/EEG: Micro-to-Macroscale and Back Again
Tuesday, March 23, 1:30 – 3:30 pm, Salons G-K
Chair: Darcy Waller1 (darcy_diesburg@brown.edu); 1Brown University
From evoked responses to oscillations, signatures of cognition recorded using magneto-/electro-encephalography (M/EEG) have been powerful tools in cognitive neuroscience over decades. However, the cha… View More…
