However, our memories are not perfect snapshots of our perceptual experiences. My research explores the cognitive and neural pressures that shape what sensory information is stored in long-term memory and how this information is stored in a way that benefits later behavior. In my talk, I will highlight a series of fMRI experiments that seek to determine (i) how the visual content of memory is actively molded by competing memories, task factors, and intrinsic neural architecture; and (ii) how these memory transformations promote adaptive behavior. Together, these experiments highlight the diverse pressures on human visual memory and how they combine to produce a system that is flexible, efficient, and adaptive.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://dartmouth.zoom.us/j/92366533850?pwd=T3NNOHJLcDhBekREaFNQV2VkeGpTQT09"><b>Zoom link </b></a></div><div>Please follow ICN on X, the social media platform formerly known as <a href="https://twitter.com/InnovatorsTalk">Twitter</a> and <a href="https://dartmouth.us2.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=436ce3daea4b50b18050bd550&id=978a43b81d">subscribe</a> to receive announcements.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Erica Busch, Omri Raccah, and Sam McDougle</div><div>On behalf of the Innovators in Cognitive Neuroscience Organizing Committee </div></div><br><br><div><div>----</div><div>Erica L.
