Our daily lives unfold continuously, yet when we reflect on the past, we remember those
experiences as distinct and cohesive events. To understand this phenomenon, early …

Episodic memory allows us to mentally travel through time. How does the brain convert a
simple reminder cue into a full-blown memory of past events and experiences? In this …

Although the stream of information we encounter is continuous, our experiences tend to be
discretized into meaningful clusters, altering how we represent our past. Event segmentation …

Our brains at rest spontaneously replay recently acquired information, but how this process
is orchestrated to avoid interference with ongoing cognition is an open question. Here we …

Reactivation refers to the phenomenon wherein patterns of neural activity expressed during
perceptual experience are re-expressed at a later time, a putative neural marker of memory …

Memory is often conceived as a dynamic process that involves substantial transformations of
mental representations. However, the neural mechanisms underlying these transformations …

Learning about temporal structure is adaptive because it enables the generation of
expectations. We examined how the brain uses experience in structured environments to …

Exploration, consolidation and planning depend on the generation of sequential state
representations. However, these algorithms require disparate forms of sampling dynamics …

Experiences are stored in the mind as discrete mental units, or 'events,'which influence—
and are influenced by—attention, learning, and memory. In this way, the notion of an …

The ability to anticipate and flexibly plan for the future is critical for achieving goal-directed
outcomes. Extant data suggest that neural and cognitive stress mechanisms may disrupt …
