Research Area
The main aim of the group‘s research is to elucidate the neural and cellular bases of recognition memory.
A number of complementary behavioural, pharmacological and molecular techniques are used to examine the role of neurotransmitter systems (eg. glutamate and acetylcholine) and intracellular signaling pathways in familiarity discrimination within defined cortical regions.
