Statisticians and academics in Australia should ignore the terrible advice of most LGBTIQA+ organisations and read this post instead. The 2020 ABS standard is almost never the correct way to collect d...

To make flexible decisions, the brain needs to make inferences between events that were not directly experienced together. In sharp-wave ripple (SWR) events, during periods of rest and sleep, spiking ...

Noninvasive methods are making it possible to study neural replay in humans. Although focused on alignment with rodent findings, human research often …

A combined MEG + fMRI benchmark dataset with known neural sequences to validate replay detection methods (TDLM and SODA).

Schuck Lab policy on generative and agentic AI

How sensitive is TDLM really? Can we actually find replay when we know it is present?

A context-driven memory model simulates a wide range of characteristics of waking and sleeping hippocampal replay, providing a new account of how and why replay occurs.

Nature Communications - It is unclear which aspects of experience shape sleep’s contributions to learning. Here, by combining neural recordings in rats with reinforcement learning, the...

While AI coding tools have demonstrated potential to accelerate software development, their use in scientific computing raises critical questions about code quality and scientific validity. In this pa...

Adolescents’ choices are influenced by others. A social risky choice experiment and Bayesian modelling reveal that age differences in internal uncertainty, being unsure how to choose, relate to differences in susceptibility to social influence.

Research Data Scientist

Humans can implicitly learn about multistep sequential relationships between events in the environment from their statistical co-occurrence. Theore...

Sleep supports memory consolidation, but can it also facilitate memory reorganization? This study reveals that N2 sleep, but not N1 sleep during a nap, increases the likelihood of having an 'aha' mome...
