DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Memory retrieval is a dynamic process\, shaped by ho
 w we represent past experiences. Cognitive neuroscience models suggest tha
 t distinct hippocampal pathways support either conceptual or perceptual me
 mory representations. In this talk\, I will first present neuroimaging stu
 dies examining how these representations are supported by different neural
  pathways. Then\, I will present work that uses this distinction in memory
  to better understand differences in remembering that come with age. Final
 ly\, I will propose why we may have such distinctions in how we represent
  memory.\n\nBio: Signy Sheldon received her PhD in Psychology from the 
 University of Toronto and subsequently completed post-doctoral fellowships
  at St. Michael's Hospital (Toronto)\, and the Rotman Research Institute. 
 Dr. Sheldon began her appointment at McGill University in January 2015\, a
 nd has already established herself as a highly successful researcher. Wha
 t is particularly striking about Dr. Sheldon’s record is how her researc
 h on memory draws from many different research areas within brain\, behavi
 or and cognitive science\, including problem solving\, psycholinguistics\,
  and visual imagery.\n\nhttps://indico.giga.uliege.be/event/624/
