The CAM Lab's own Dr. Lauren Richmond and Lois Burnett traveled to the beautiful city of Nagoya, Japan to participate in the SARMAC 14th Biennial conference!
Dr. Richmond lead a keynote presentation about the use of cognitive offloading in everyday memory and its gap in the literature. Furthermore, Dr. Richmond presented their research on the benefits of cognitive offloading to older adult memory performance for both simple and complex information. This was co-authored by Lois Burnett. We appreciate the opportunity to present to our international colleagues and look forward to seeing and sharing our work with you all again soon!

Our own Timothy Brackins traveled down to Dallas, Texas to present at this year's Aging and Cognition Conference, where he presented his poster, "Changes in Hippocampal Volumes Are Associated With Age and Episodic Memory Performance: A Longitudinal Analysis" along with co-authors, Dr. Suparna Rajaram and Dr. Lauren Richmond.
Come visit us at Psychonomics 2022 in Boston this weekend and see the work our lab members have been working on this year! Catch us at the following talks and poster sessions!

Click the button below to get caught up on all things CAM Lab ranging from exciting new research, conference presentations, graduating seniors and more! It’s been a long time since The CAM Lab has attended a scientific conference in person. With Covid-19 came many online virtual conferences and while we were grateful that we were able to have some sort of platform to present our research and connect with other scientists, we have missed the in-person conferences!
The CAM Lab is heading to Atlanta, Georgia to present at The 2022 Cognitive Aging Conference from April 7th-10th. We are presenting multiple projects over the span of the three-day conference. Katie Burnett (PhD student in the Cognitive Science Program) is presenting two posters on different cognitive offloading projects, each with exciting results! Tori Pena (PhD student in the Cognitive Science program) is presenting a poster on research examining personal and national mental time travel during the COVID-19 pandemic. Last but not least, Dr. Lauren Richmond is an author on a poster being presented by Sydney Garlitch (PhD student at University of North Carolina Greensboro) that explores age differences in context processing on a free recall task. For more information, visit the 2022 Cognitive Aging Conference Website by clicking HERE. We held our last lab meeting of 2021! To close out a semester of hard work, we did a data blitz where all of the lab members presented on the projects they were involved in. We accomplished many things this semester and collected a lot of data...we can't wait to see what 2022 has in store for The CAM Lab!
The CAM Lab had a great showing at the 62nd Annual Psychonomics Meeting. CAM Lab principle investigator, Dr. Lauren Richmond, (along with collaborators Tim Brackins and Dr. Suparna Rajaram) gave a spoken presentation titled "Bringing it all together: Age and memory performance interact to predict hippocampal volume over the adult lifespan". Dr. Lauren Richmond was also a collaborator on a poster being presented by Sydney Garlitch (along with collaborators Chris Wahlheim and Hunter Ball) titled "Adult age differences in free recall dynamics and subjective reports of retrieved context". Last but not least, Katie Burnett presented a poster (with collaborators Tori Pena, Dr. Suparna Rajaram and Dr. Lauren Richmond) titled "Negativity bias for memories of national past and positivity for the national future".
We had a blast at Psychonomics and are looking forward to more (hopefully in-person) conferences soon! Beautiful leaf colors, apple cider donuts, cool weather, pumpkin spice.... its fall! We've been busy in the CAM Lab since out Spring newsletter so if you want to see what we've been up to click the link below!
CAM Lab principle investigator, Dr. Lauren Richmond, was featured in the latest issue of The Stony Brook University Magazine! Check out the article to read about our lab's current research. You might even learn some tips & tricks to improve your own memory!
