Adam is at the forefront of developing tools combining in vivo recording and drug delivery with high potential for future clinical use in collaboration with prof. George Malliaras. We are collaborating with Adam’s lab on testing these tools and judging their usefulness in neurodegenerative dementias like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. See below the abstract of Adam’s…

Let me invite you to the talk of Antal Berényi at KOKI lecture room at 11 am on 9 March. Title and abstract: Coupling single neuronal activity to complex brain functions: large-scale, high-resolution approaches to dissect and to modify neuronal network activities. Antal Berényi MTA-SZTE ‘‘Momentum’’ Oscillatory Neuronal Networks Research Group, Department of Physiology, University…

I would like to invite you to the talk of Zoltan Somogyvari at KOKI lecture room at 10 am on 2 March. Zoltan has a background in physics and he has contributed to the ways we can look at our electrophysiology data with unusual insight on multiple occasions. The title and abstract of his talk:…

Duda visited us and we conducted a successful one-day acute experiment – with a chronic silicon probe inserted in the auditory cortex. It was a great group effort! Duda also gave a seminar: Title: “Foraging decisions in flies and mice” Abstract: Foraging for food and energy resources is fundamental for animal survival. Therefore it is…

To kickstart 2017, let me invite you to a seminar lecture by Gergo Orban (Wigner Research Center for Physics, Hung. Acad. Sci.) to be held in the KOKI lecture room on 5 Jan at 11 am. Orban’s group aims to understand the computational principles underlying sensory processing. The speaker is a Lendulet Research Fellow and…

Duda Kvitsiani and Balazs Hangya got the DARE grant! The project is entitled: “Electrophysiological recordings and manipulation of single neurons in behaving animals”. Electrophysiological methods have the necessary temporal resolution to capture the microsecond timescale of neuronal firing; however, spatial information about the exact location of the recorded cells has been proven hard to extract…

It was great hosting Florin Albeanu from Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in our lab! Florin gave a seminar titled “Feedforward and feedback neuronal mechanisms in olfaction”.

Balazs received the ERC Starting Grant! News in Hungarian here and here and here.

Adam Kampff (UCL), Goncalo Lopes (UCL) and Tim Schroeder (Donders Centre for Neuroscience, Nijmegen) dropped by and showed their cool new recordings with CMOS probe prototypes! Picture: data blitz at Éleszto ruin pub

The papers in Neuron and Neural Computation by Josh Sanders, Balazs Hangya and Adam Kepecs were featured in the Hungarian news: http://mta.hu/tudomany_hirei/agyunkban-elo-matematikus-felel-a-bizonyossag-erzeseert-106625 http://www.innoteka.hu/cikk/a_bennunk_elo_statisztikus.1377.html
