Neuroscience Talk: "How objects influence neural representation of space, and brain states in animals during Winter sleep (hibernation)"

We are happy to host a lecture by the young neuroscientist Sebastian Andersson (Max Planck Institute for Brain Research, Frankfurt), who has an interest in establishing his research group at Lund University.

Lecture title: How objects influence neural representation of space, and brain states in animals during Winter sleep (hibernation)

Date and time: October 15, 4-5 PM

Place: Segerfalk Lecture Hall, BMC A10

About the speaker:
Sebastian Andersson obtained a MSci degree in Neuroscience at Oxford University, where he worked on Drosophila neurobiology. He then moved to the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim (Norway) to carry out his PhD education with May-Britt Moser and Edvard Moser. There he studied neural population coding in the hippocampus and the enthorhinal cortex during different sensorimotor states. He is currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research in Frankfurt in the lab of Gilles Laurent, where he is studying brain states during hibernation.  

Host: Angela Cenci Nilsson
