What if there is no ‘systems consolidation’? Memory dynamics over time could reflect the interplay of multiple forms of memory engrams

Systems consolidation is a hypothetical process by which memories gradually transition from initial dependence on the hippocampus to long-term representation within distributed neocortical networks. More recent views of systems consolidation concede that detailed memories are always hippocampal-dependent but maintain that neocortical memories, even generalized schematic ones, only gradually become hippocampal independent. In this talk, I argue that “systems consolidation” may be a misnomer. Read more >>

The Versäumte Bilder project captures "missed images" of female scientists and their ground-breaking contributions. Artist Gesine Born (Bilderinstitut) raises awareness for the achievements of women through AI-generated images, which are based on real images and their historical narratives. Have a look at the missed images in Born's projects in Bonn and Darmstadt.

|
The CRC1315 will be participating with an AI-generated image of an important scientist. Join us for the opening!
