The 3-day
mini-school component has featured lectures on
- •Classical analyses of human memory
processes
- •Imaging the spatial and temporal
localization of memory networks
- •From memory fractionation to mental
simulation in non-human primates
- •Hippocampal memory representations
in rodents
- •Universals in memory? Insights from
the avian brain
- •Computational perspectives on
complementary memory systems
- •Mechanistic models of memory
operations at the network level
These
lectures were not aimed at teaching these methodologies in detail, but
rather at presenting the concepts utilized and arising from each
approach,
focusing particularly on those at the borders and at the intersections
between approaches, e.g. those dealing with reactivation, rhythms,
complementarity, dynamics.
We had
received 95 applications, and had to make a difficult
selection among many equivalently excellent applicants. The list of
those selected can be downloaded here.
Thanks to additional generous
support from the European Brain and
Behaviour Society (besides that from the VolkswagenStiftung and from
the FENS-IBRO Programme) we have been able to contribute substantially
to the
travel expenses of all students who could not otherwise attend.
