The Center for Systems Neuroscience hosts several events each year, including workshops and a seminar series. Our seminars feature speakers from Boston University and beyond presenting their latest research in the Eichenbaum Colloquium room, named in honor of the late Howard Eichenbaum, located within the Rajen Kilachand Center for Integrated Life Sciences & Engineering.
Illuminating the structure and function of individual brain cells Jennifer Luebke, Ph.D. –Professor of Anatomy & Neurobiology The Laboratory of Cellular Neurobiology, led by Professor Jennifer Luebke (Center for Systems Neuroscience), employs multiple approaches to understand how specific features of individual neurons enable the area-specific functions of different brain regions. Their research also sheds light […]
The Howe Lab studies how neural circuits motivate and direct actions to reach desired goals, and they have developed optical tools that allow them to study activity in a large structure located deep in the brain—called the striatum—which plays a critical role in such processes...
The Ramirez Group, led by Professor Steve Ramirez, investigates how we process and retrieve memories as well as how those memories might be artificially modulated to treat mental health disorders...
The Denison Lab studies visual perception, attention, and decision-making—with a focus on temporal dynamics—to understand how the human brain generates our ongoing perceptual experience.
PhD student Quan Do, while working at the Hasselmo Lab at the Rajen Kilachand Center, carefully inserted a fiber optic cannula into the brain of a rat to provide laser stimulation to a precise neural region.
The Stangl Lab studies the neural basis of human cognition and behavior using a variety of neuroimaging techniques, several of which his team has pioneered.
The Center for Brain Recovery is Boston University’s new research hub dedicated to enhancing diagnosis and improving treatments for people with neurological disorders including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and dementia.
