Neurons and Glia in Memory Lab

The Belgian Friends Optogenetics Laboratory

What underlies the transition from recent to remote memory? How does local modulation of neuronal activity by glia cells directly affect plasticity and behavior? To solve these puzzles we employ a variety of research approaches, integrating behavior, calcium imaging, electrophysiology and molecular biology, and apply optogenetics or chemogenetics in all of these levels.
