EPFL // BMI Winter Symposium on Connectivity and Plasticity of Neural Circuits

Lausanne, CH

Attendance type(s): In Person

Event Dates: 12—13 Dec 2016

Neural circuits of synaptically connected neurons drive brain function and behavior. Technological and conceptual advances are now providing exciting new perspectives linking synaptic connectivity and plasticity to behavior, learning and memory. In this meeting, we will discuss recent progress in our understanding of neural circuits focusing on connectomics, optogenetics, synaptic plasticity and learning.
