The Lasting Cognitive Effect of Smell on Memory Researchers, exploring what happens in the brain after exposure to certain smells, found that that even brief odor cues have a lasting effect

Just a whiff of certain smells can instantly take me back to my childhood... Read a new Q&A with Joan Tarrida Vidal about the lasting cognitive effects of smell:

Language in the Brain is More Than the Sum of Its Parts Researchers make a case for language as an emergent property of the brain, rather than individual parts working together.

In a new paper, Nicolas Bourguignon and Salvatore Lo Bue make a case for language as an emergent property of the brain. Read a new Q&A with Bourguignon here:

Exploring Auditory Interconnectivity One Sound at a Time Cognitive neuroscientists are exploring auditory processing to better understand how sound is perceived in the human brain.

Cognitive neuroscientists are moving beyond the classic hierarchy of sound processing to better understand how interconnectivity contributes to what we hear. Read a new Q&A with Zofia Hołubowska:

Check out my interview in the CNS newsletter about my graduate research on free recall in children 😊

How Was Your School Day?: Unpacking Free Recall in Young Children A new paper finds that it can take some time for free recall to develop in young children, requiring multiple different cognitive skills.

"Sometimes when it seems like young children don’t remember something you ask them about, it may be more of an issue of cognitive search and verbal fluency than memory per se." Read a new Q&A with @susanbenear.bsky.social about the development of free recall:

Nous avons passé un super moment à la Cognitive Neuroscience Society (@cogneuronews.bsky.social) à Boston ! 🧠 Nous avons présenté notre logiciel aux chercheurs et échangé sur le potentiel de la XR pour les sciences cognitives et au-delà ! Merci à tous qui se sont arrêtés à notre stand ! 🚀 #CNS2025

We had a great time at the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (@cogneuronews.bsky.social) in Boston! 🧠 We were excited to demo our software to researchers and start great discussions on the potential of XR research for cognitive science and beyond! Thanks to everyone who stopped by! 🚀 #CNS2025

Moving Beyond Traditional Pathways in Cognitive Neuroscience The CNSTA career panel at CNS 2025 offered candid insights on skills development, risk-taking, and the value of nonlinear career paths.

Great meeting #cns2025! Many thanks for organizers @cogneuronews.bsky.social. I enjoyed presenting the Data Blitz talk (www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUku...), poster, and meeting old and new friends!

I can say personally that my scientific career would not have existed if @paller.bsky.social hadn't taken in this advisor-less clinical psychology student into his lab. A number of his mentees have similar stories. I can't think of a more deserving recipient of this award.

#CNS2025 was such a blast! It was a delight to work & present our symposium on how VR can be leveraged in neuro/psych research! Make sure to check out the cool research being done by my fellow speakers @tammyish.bsky.social & @manusmad.bsky.social & Birgit Peña Häufler! Excited for #CNS2026 !
