We used eye-tracking, pupillometry, and behavioral methods to explore how spatial information interacts with memory for temporal order. Our results suggest that the mental timeline can be an effective memory strategy. Let us know what you think!

We found that children have robust object recognition abilities that surpass many ANNs. Models only outperformed kids when their training far exceeded what a child could experience in their lifetime

first empirical paper from the Aulet lab! What does learning to count do to a brain? We trained neural networks on different tasks and only counting (i.e., predicting the number of dots in a dot array) reorganized representations around number. New preprint:
