How memories can be stored and modified: decoding hippocampal algorithms during learning and sleep Summary Making memories can be described as a two-step process. Step one is the learning – or encoding of new information in a temporary storage – the hippocampus – one...
Pea plants on the move: glimpses on perception and action in plants Summary At first glance, plants seem relatively immobile, stuck to the ground in rigid structures and, unlike animals, unable to escape stressful environments. But, although markedly different from...
Summary Interpretable classification of ventilation behaviors based on machine learning Ventilation is a simple physiological function that ensures the vital supply of oxygen and the elimination of CO2. The recording of the airflow through the nostrils of a mouse over...
Summary From structure and dynamics of biological networks to spiking neural networks and generalized artificial intelligence In this talk I will first present the line of work that guided my activity between physics and biology. The broad topic concerns the structure...
Summary The neuro-biomechanical control of balance Humans and other mammals are capable of learning outstanding sensorimotor coordination skills, which share one crucial component: the ability to maintain balance during movement. This requires coordinating the...
