Dr. Nathan Schultheiss has joined the Neurocircuitry and Cognition Lab at FIU! Dr. Schultheiss has 5 years of postdoctoral experience with in vitro and in vivo electrophysiology, and received his PhD from Emory University. Please join me in welcoming Nathan!
A great day for neuroscience research at FIU, including our lab, which will be conducting our human brian imaging experiments with this new state-of-the-art 3T Siemens Prisma. This is a view from our wet lab windows, across the street in AHC4.
The current issue of The Journal of Neuroscience has a mini-review titled “Hippocampal CA1 Subregion as a Context Decoder” highlighting our recent work on temporal contexts and sequence memory! The authors, Sebastian Barrientos and Vicente Tiznado, do a very nice job of highlighting our work and addressing new directions that need to be explored toward understanding hippocampal […]
John and Randee were selected from a large pool of highly qualified applicants, and will join us to work on rat behavior and histology. Welcome!
In this paper we show that activity in CA1 neurons in the hippocampus reflects the sequential context of non-spatial events representing a novel mechanism of temporal coding. From our significance statement: “The discovery of this novel form of temporal coding in hippocampal neurons advances our fundamental understanding of the neurobiology of episodic memory and will serve as a […]
We’re happy that everyone was able to attend the first annual Lab Holiday Party! Here’s a pic of everyone from the AllenLab. Many MattfeldLab members also attended, but unfortunately we didn’t think to take a group picture until they had left–we’ll be sure to do so in 2016.
Julio Castillo officially joined the lab in November 2015. Welcome!
Welcome to the lab!
Maximillian Schlecht and Vicannia Merisma have officially joined the lab in September 2015. Welcome!
