My lab at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee is recruiting a full-time research coordinator! We study how human memory supports optimal decision making in both familiar contexts and new situations, using behavioral and neuroimaging data with model simulations. hamllab.org/positions/re... 🧠📈

I wrote an entry on Transformers for the Open Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science (‪@oecs-bot.bsky.social‬). I had to work with a tight word limit, but I hope it's useful as a short introduction for students and researchers who don't work on machine learning: oecs.mit.edu/pub/ppxhxe2b

My heart goes out to the folks at NIH and other agencies who are losing their jobs today.

Looking for tips for overcoming imposter syndrome. I'm (hopefully) in the final push to the end of the PhD yet the self doubt is crushing every bit of productivity out of me.

Also, I wanna shout out their Success Through Aging Research program (uwm.edu/our/star/). They bring together a yearly cohort of undergrads from underrepresented backgrounds for mentored research experiences. I got to spend a lot of time with this year’s cohort, and they are just phenomenal people.

I study how the brain organizes knowledge to guide reasoning and decision making. In my new lab at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, I will use fMRI and machine learning to examine how cognitive maps are formed and used to guide behavior in new situations. #HiSciSky #neuroskyence hamllab.org

An overview of my recent research, which I will continue at UWM. I use fMRI to study how representational geometry, i.e., the relationship of neural patterns of different events to one another, reflects structure in the world (Morton et al. 2020, PNAS). I also use representational similarity methods to examine how semantic knowledge about real-world people and places is represented in the brain and how knowledge about different events becomes integrated in the medial temporal lobe (Morton et al. in press, Cerebral Cortex). Finally, I examine how statistical learning about regularities in when events occur provides clues about underlying structure in the world, which is represented in human hippocampus (Pudhiyidath & Morton et al. 2022, JOCN).
