Physiology Seminar: Coding principles of diverse synapses in the the hippocampus

My laboratory is interested in the basic principles of neuronal communication in the hippocampal network. We aim to better understand how spatial information is processed and coded by hippocampal cells. We pay particular attention to the properties of synaptic interactions between mossy fibers and CA3 pyramidal cells during burst activity. Granule cells fire in bursts when the animal is in a particular spatial location, suggesting that this form of communication is a key element of spatial information processing.

This seminar will take place in-person and online (details in the attached poster below)
