<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">Understanding and remembering realistic experiences in our everyday lives requires activating many kinds of structured
knowledge about the world, including spatial maps, temporal event scripts, and semantic relationships. My recent projects have explored the ways in which we build up this schematic knowledge (during a single experiment and across developmental timescales)
and can strategically deploy these cognitive maps to construct event representations that we can store in memory or use to make predictions. I will describe my lab's ongoing work developing new experimental and analysis techniques for conducting functional
MRI experiments using movies, poetry, games, virtual reality, and "memory experts" to study complex naturalistic schemas.</span></p>

of the McConnell Brain Imaging Centre (1984), to constantly bridge the clinical and research realms. The talks will highlight the latest advances and discoveries in neuropsychology, cognitive neuroscience, and neuroimaging.</span></p>

the world. The series is intended to provide a virtual forum for scientists and trainees to continue to foster interdisciplinary exchanges on the mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment of brainand cognitive disorders. If you, or someone you know, would be interested
in presenting please contact us to secure a spot on the schedule.</span></p>
