Studying mice of different ages, Stanford scientists and colleagues found that neurons involved in spatial memory become less reliable later in life.

Research from the Giocomo lab finds that mice create neural maps of the location of rewards, distinct from the well-known hippocampal maps of an animal's location in space.

Academic leaders debated the future of the intersecting study of natural and artificial intelligence at Wu Tsai Neuro’s Annual Symposium

This week we are talking with Stanford neurobiologist Lisa Giocomo, exploring the intersection of memory, navigation, and the boundaries we create between ourselves and the world around us.

Wu Tsai Neuro affiliate Lisa Giocomo has been named a Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Investigator in the neurosciences, along with 10 other Stanford HHMI Investigators. This award highlights her exceptional research and dedication to mentoring the next generation of scientists.

This week on From Our Neurons to Yours, we sit down with Stanford neurobiologist Lisa Giocomo to explore the intersection of memory and navigation.

Stanford Medicine queried Wu Tsai Neuro and Knight Initiative affiliates share their expertise on the what the human brain are thinking about humans vs AI.

Linderman’s research group builds computational tools to extract simple structures from high-dimensional datasets, enhancing our understanding of the brain and its processes. He spoke with us about his work and the McKnight award.
