Dear Colleagues,
We wish to invite you to attend the SUSHI (Single Unit Studies of Human Intelligence) symposium, a two-day satellite event taking place in Glasgow immediately before the 7th International Conference on Memory (
ICOM-7)
next year.
SUSHI will bring together leading laboratories using human intracranial single-neuron recordings to investigate learning, memory, and higher-order cognition. The symposium is intended as a focused forum for discussing recent advances, emerging methods, and
future directions in the study of human single-neuron activity.
The programme will consist exclusively of short talks from leading researchers in the field, designed to maximise scientific exchange and discussion.
The symposium will be organised around two broad themes:
Day 1 - Episodic memory, spatial cognition, and the hippocampus
Day 2 - Speech and language, auditory cognition, and the neocortex
For those interested in only one of these themes, single-day registration options will be available.
We hope that SUSHI will provide a unique opportunity for researchers working with human single-unit recordings to exchange ideas in an intimate setting before joining the broader memory science community at ICOM-7.
Further details, including registration information and the scientific programme, can be found on the symposium website
here. You can sign up to receive further updates via the mailing list
here.
We would be delighted if you could join us in Glasgow, and grateful if you could share this invitation with any interested parties.
With best wishes,
Daniel Bush & Simon Hanslmayr
On behalf of the SUSHI 2027 Organising Committee
