Our goal is to understand mechanisms of memory processing on the level of brain neural networks. We focus on hippocampal circuits and their interactions with neocortical areas. Hippocampal system has been found crucial for declarative memory in humans and certain types

of cognitive abilities in animals, namely for orientation and spatial memory. Because we can read the information code in hippocampal pyramidal cells relatively well, this system thus provides a fascinating field offering a direct insight into mechanisms of how brain represents external world and how this information is later recalled. The lab’s concept is to systematically explore properties of memory processing across networks within hippocampus and connected cortical areas. We mainly record electric activity from populations of place cells in laboratory rats and decode the neural information in high temporal resolution. This enables to study detailed kinetics of memory processing and to relate it with local brain oscillations and behavior. Members

Neuroscientists discover a molecular mechanism that allows memories to form

When the brain forms a memory of a new experience, neurons called engram cells encode the details of the memory and are later reactivated whenever we recall it. A new MIT study reveals that this process is controlled by large-scale remodeling of cells' chromatin.

Navigating through odour world with grid cells
https://www.cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896-6273(19)30297-1 #

Grid cells in entorhinal cortex underlie spatial orientation and path finding. Bao et al. show that entorhinal grid-like codes with behavioral relevance emerge when humans mentally navigate an olfactory landscape, highlighting potential neural mechanisms for locating odor sources in odiferous envir...

Dear colleagues.
I want to wish you a wonderful and peaceful holidays with your beloved ones.

I chose this picture because it was just a full ordinary moment from one of those gatherings at our Lab, and I thought about how many ordinary moments and people makes our lives special.

Please take a minute to look at the picture and just as the old renaissance paintings where it seems people is just living and enoying. (eg. Wedding at Cana from Paolo Veronese)

Thank you all for making my life full of small and ordinary moments!

Enjoy life and take happiness in the small moments.
SLPP
