OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

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.
