4 YEAR PhD IN NEUROSCIENCE
Neil Burgess
Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, UCL
Neural networks and hippocampus
My main current research interests are:
1. Neural network modelling of the hippocampal representation of spatial location in rats and humans.
2. Neuropsychological and functional neuroimaging investigation of spatial and episodic memory using virtual reality.
AVAILABLE PROJECTS
Developing a computational model of the temporal coding of location by hippocampal place cells.
