- "In this world, there are two times....The first is unyielding, predetermined. The second makes up its mind as it goes along." - Alan Lightman, Einstein's Dreams 🕰️ Amid these wild times, I'm grateful to first-author this super cool fMRI study started by my great advisor @davidclewett.bsky.social! 🧠
- New from our lab: your brain doesn’t just remember time - it bends it. We show that the dopamine system responds to natural breakpoints in experience, and this relates to more stretched memories of time. Blinking also increases, signaling encoding of new memories. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Shout out to my good friend and fellow UCLA grad student Kayla Lim for introducing me to this great Lightman quote!
