I gave a talk at Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Forum on Innovative Development of Psychological Science: Young Psychologist Forum (粤港澳大湾区心理学科创新发展论坛: 大湾区青年心理学人论坛). I shared my research on how memory reactivation during sleep modulates daytime decision-making. This was a great opportunity to share my research with colleagues from different institutions, and to learn more about the cutting-edge research in psychological science in the Greater Bay Area.

I started my post-doctoral research at the Social and Cognitive Neuroscience Lab, Department of Psychology, The University of Hong Kong. I am very excited to continue my research on sleep, social learning, and memory-guided decision-making, and to explore more about the fascinating world of cognitive neuroscience.

I attended Europe Sleep 2024, and presented my work on Modifying Evaluative Decision-Making During Human Sleep. This was a great opportunity to share my research , to learn more about the cutting-edge research in sleep science, and to meet with the sleep community. I am grateful for the feedback and the discussion, and enjoyed the view of the beautiful city of Seville.

I participated in Birmingham-Leiden Summer School on Computational Social Cognition. This was a great opportunity to learn more about computational modeling opportunity. I have learned a lot from the lectures and the hands-on sessions. Many thanks to the organizers and the lecturers!

Our paper Modulating social learning-induced evaluation updating during human sleep is now available at npj Science of Learning. This is my first first-authored sleep and TMR research. In this paper, we examined whether TMR can reactivate pre-sleep social learning to further influence evaluation updatings. The results showed YES, and the overnight evaluation updating was related to cue-elicited delta-theta power and N2 sleep spindle density that are related to sleep-based memory consolidation.
