The Neurobiology of Decision Making: A Window on Cognition
Start: 09:30
End: 10:45

Abstract: 

Studies of decision-making in such varied fields as psychology, economics, statistics, political- and computer science must consider the flexible and nuanced way that information bears on the choices that agents make. In neuroscience, the study of decision-making opens a window on the neural basis of many other higher cognitive capacities which also use information in a contingent fashion and in a flexible time frame — free from the immediacy of sensory events or the need to control a body in real time.

Cellular and Network Mechanisms for Memory Storage and Recall in the Hippocampus.
Start: 09:30
End: 10:45

Abstract: 

The hippocampus is a memory structure, notably for the storage of sequence information. There is now a great deal of information about the anatomy and cellular properties of the hippocampus that constrain models of how the system works. Our work has analyzed two properties of hippocampal cells, the spatial properties of place cells and the phenomenon of phase precession.

(talk)
Conscious and unconscious perception and their relation to short and long-range synchronization
Start: 09:30
End: 10:30

Abstract:

In my talk I will present evidence which suggests that long-distance synchronization in the gamma frequency range plays a crucial role in conscious perception. I will present several studies where long–distance synchronization and local gamma synchronization were measured during the presentation of visible versus invisible words and letters.
