LEARNMEM2018 Keynote Lecture by Edvard Moser, Ph.D. | Grid Cells and the Entorhinal Map of Space

Описание: Edvard Moser, Ph.D. is a professor of neuroscience and director of the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience in Trondheim (https://www.ntnu.edu/kavli). He is interested in how spatial location and spatial memory are computed in the brain. His work, conducted with May-Britt Moser as a long-term collaborator, includes the discovery of grid cells in the entorhinal cortex, which provides the first clues to a neural mechanism for the metric of spatial mapping.

Moser shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2014 with May-Britt Moser and John O'Keefe for their work identifying the cells that make up the brain's positioning system (https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/med....
