OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Continuous episodic retrieval tasks have the potential to advance understanding of how we remember previous experiences. Compared with conventional approaches, continuous measures can provide a more detailed and precise characterization of memory processes at behavioural and neural levels, and more sensitive tools for detecting memory vulnerability. In this talk, I will consider recent work in which we have begun to use continuous retrieval measures to explore the precision of episodic memory, and how it declines in healthy ageing. Combining behavioural, computational modelling, functional neuroimaging, and brain stimulation approaches, this new direction promises novel insights into the cognitive and neural mechanisms that underlie episodic retrieval and highlights the sensitivity of memory precision to age-related cognitive decline.
This seminar will take place virtually via Zoom. Registration is required.
