Watch a 47-minute neuroscience lecture exploring how the brain transforms visual perception into lasting memories. Join Dr. Nicole Rust, Associate Professor at the University of Pennsylvania and Director of the Visual Memory Lab, as she delves into the fascinating mechanisms behind visual recognition memory. Learn about groundbreaking research combining behavioral studies, neural recordings, and computational approaches to understand how the brain processes and stores visual information. Discover insights into population-based recordings in high-level visual cortex and hippocampus, exploring how humans can accurately recall images after viewing thousands of them briefly. Follow along as Dr. Rust, recipient of numerous prestigious awards including the Troland Research Award and McKnight Scholar Award, breaks down complex concepts like familiarity memory, memorability scores, and repetition suppression. Examine behavioral signatures, explore conditions of ambiguity, and understand the three stages of memory formation in this comprehensive exploration of visual memory processing.
