We are a Systems Neuroscience Lab located in Copenhagen. Our goal is to understand the neuronal mechanisms involved in memory and cognition and how imbalances in the circuits can lead to pathological conditions. In particular, we study spatial memory, and theta oscillations in behaving rats, and how the distributed populations of neurons across the brain circuits central to memory, are coordinating their dynamics to generate complex cognitive functions in awake rodents.
