  1. I was watching a recording of #Inav22 (Interdisciplinary Navigation Conference, virtual format), in particular, a session starting with a talk from @BenoitGirard on #NavigationStrategies ... Thinking "yeah that's a pretty interesting talk!"... when came the time of questions from the audience and my own question was asked! 😅 I had totally forgotten that I "was" there!

    I guess the virtual conferences are indeed slightly less memorable than real life ones... As memory researchers we should really find a way to improve this!

  2. My latest #Neuroesc #JournalClub was on this:
    Rat anterior cingulate neurons responsive to rule or strategy changes are modulated by the hippocampal theta rhythm and sharp-wave ripples

    I won't do a super-long summary like last time, but please share your thoughts if you've read it!

    The author line-up is quite interesting, I think they were all students at the time of data collection which seems to have happened a long time ago, and now many are PIs (@BenoitGirard probably knows about the backstory...)! Probably a pandemic paper??

    The scientific question (what supports rule recognition and strategy shift) is really interesting, and they record in the frontal cortex (#ACC) as well as #Hippocampus (ventral CA1!), but the rats just were not up to the task (1/5 rats actually did what they wanted). I am also not fully convinced by some of the analysis. @jessetm I'd be interested to know what you think of their strategy detection method!

    Why is it that all papers looking at these themes always end up being.. quite complex??
