A central requirement of the program is a critical
mass of core CMB faculty who are well established
experts in this area, who share research interests,
complement one another in techniques, represent
a continuity of levels of analysis, and who
are geographically contiguous in location to
facilitate daily interaction. |
| Howard
Eichenbaum, Director, Professor
of Psychology, University Professor, is an internationally
recognized leader in neuropsychology of memory
in animals and characterization of memory coding
properties of neurons. |
Michael
Hasselmo, Professor of Psychology,
is an internationally known leader in computational and experimental analyses
of neural circuits that mediate memory and in
the pharmacology of memory. |
Nancy
Kopell, Professor of Mathematics, is an
expert on neural dynamics, and is especially
interested in neural rhythms and their functions.
|
Chantal
E Stern, Professor of Psychology and faculty
member at the MGH-NMR Center, is an expert in
human brain imaging of memory systems. |
John
White, Associate Professor of Biomedical
Engineering, is an expert on intracellular and
network mechanisms of neural activity patterns
in brain areas involved in memory. |
The core faculty already
have a track record of collaborative
research. Eichenbaum has co-authored papers
separately with Stern, and Hasselmo, and Eichenbaum
and Hasselmo share a postdoctoral fellow and
are co-PIs on a program project.
Stern and Hasselmo have co-authored papers,
and share postdoctoral fellows. |
