PhD in Psychology, currently a Postdoc at University of Münster. Working on episodic memory updating after prediction errors. Also interested in future thinking and social influences on memory.

Great experience to work with computational neuroscientists and see how modelling and experiments can support each other.
Check out the preprint here - and stay tuned for more papers!

Large prediction errors led to pattern-separated encoding, supporting our previous behavioural and fMRI results. Interestingly, the model does not require an explicit decision maker, but can rely on internal network dynamics, based on representational similarity.
Exactly three weeks before my PhD defense, the third and last paper of the thesis was published!
We tested the neural correlates and representational and behavioural consequences of updating vs separating events after prediction errors.

NEW PREPRINT
Ukrainians are more positive about their collective future than Germans and Poles. They also see their personal future as more intertwined with their country's and feel more agency to be able to change their country's future.
After 3.5 years, I defended my PhD in Psychology, with my thesis "Learning From The Unexpected: How Prediction Error Size Shapes Episodic Memory". So grateful to colleagues, collaborators, and friends who were part of this journey!
The Memory Lab congratulates @mariusboeltzig.bsky.social to the successful defense of his PhD! Well done Dr. Boeltzig! 👨🎓
Marius did excellent research in the @schubotzlab.bsky.social
on understanding how the size of prediction errors shapes episodic memory. 🧠
Make sure to check out his work!
These are the main findings of our new preprint, which is the first paper from the Spohad Lab we founded two years ago. Researchers from seven different countries, including Ukraine, working on memory and future thinking in Ukraine. @clarerathbone.bsky.social @scottcolepsych.bsky.social
New Paper out!
My colleague Julia Pronoza used data from two of our previous studies to set up a computational model and gain insights into when prediction errors update existing memories vs create new ones.

Three studies of EU, UK, and US elections show that self-serving bias moderates the relationship between future
thinking and remembering.
