Nina Liedtke defended her PhD thesis "Shaping Episodic Memories: Individual Priors Mediate the Neural and Mnemonic Consequences of Prediction Errors" last week. Nina worked together with Ricarda Schubotz on project P1 at the University of Münster. Here are a few of her FOR 2812 publications:

The research unit FOR 2812 "Constructing scenarios of the past: A new framework in episodic memory" is a project funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG). The research unit studies the cognitive and neuronal mechanisms underlying scenario construction in episodic memory. We employ and integrate approaches from Philosophy, Psychology, and Experimental and Computational Neuroscience.
