New paper led by @jay_neuro: Repetition of musical themes in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind reactivates memories of earlier scenes, and this neural reactivation correlates with subsequent memory for those scenes! Check out Jamal's thread below 👇
Music is an incredibly powerful retrieval cue. What is the neural basis of music-evoked memory reactivation? And how does this reactivation relate to later memory? In our new study, we used Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind to find out. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

We are bilaterians. We can better simultaneously attend to two objects in opposite visual hemifields than in the same hemifield. How? Here we show that circuits in the lateral prefrontal cortex may be responsible for that. Check our paper out 🐶🙂😺 direct.mit.edu/jocn/article/d…
