Two postdoctoral researchers from the MCN lab have each been awarded an NWO-XS grant to investigate how synapses on engram neurons (the specific brain cells that store a memory) change to stabilize or modify memories.
The M2 project is a collaboration with the lab of Dr. Krugers at the UvA. Together, they will investigate how stress hormone levels affect the synaptic and molecular properties of engram neurons, and thereby the specificity of a memory.
The CNCR focuses on the mechanistic understanding of gene function in the context of cognitive function.
We provide Neuroscience research training programs at Bachelor, Master, PhD and Postdoc levels
