Positive affect amplifies integration within episodic memories in the laboratory and the real world - PubMed Emotional events hold a privileged place in our memories, differing in accuracy and structure from memories for neutral experiences. Although much work has focused on the pronounced differences in mem...

In light of recent emotionally salient events - wondering how these are remembered? I’m thrilled to share new work from the lab, led by lab manager Julia Pratt, capturing emotional memories *inside and outside the lab* and quantifying their accuracy & structure pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39870487/

I want to draw attention to a special issue that Lila Davachi and I put together to memorialize our friend and colleague Sarah DuBrow. It’s full of papers inspired by her work and her being from a group of collaborators, friends, and fans! Thanks @bradpostle.bsky.social for helping make this happen.

When are our memories integrated or fragmented? In our new review, Krystian Loetscher and I consider how stress and alcohol influence memory binding. Check it out as well as the rest of the exciting Stress and Alcohol special issue of Neurobio Stress! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38375503/

Thanks, and very cool paper! We focused on episodic memory for that study, but do discuss your findings in pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37390333/ and a new paper under review (stay tuned!)

Thanks for the q! Some thoughts - cort resp can differ w challenge/threat appraisal, so would help to test multiple cort levels (we only used 1 dosage). Notable that our subj didn't "feel" stressed (or even know what pill they took!) so def need more work on stress affect/appraisal fx on hipp
