New paper out in PNAS​

​

We show how the hippocampus triggers the switch from perception to memory and how the ensuing recall signal propagates across the brain. Click here for the article and here for data and code on OSF!

SUsHi 2020 announced

​

Excited to announce the first Single Units and Human iEEG (SUsHi) Meeting and associated Spike Sorting Workshop, taking place in Birmingham from 1-3 April 2020. http://www.memorybham.com/sushi2020 

Registration and submission to open up later this year!

​

New paper out in Nature Communications​

​

Bernhard teams up with Florian Mormann and Thomas Reber in Bonn to reveal how single neurons in the human hippocampus coordinate pattern completion in entorhinal cortex during memory recall.
