Congratulations!
The SFB's first annual Brenda Milner Award has two recipients: Dr. Dorothea Hämmerer (left) is recognized for establishing herself as a leading figure in the field of cognitive neuroscience of neuromodulation, with a special emphasis on understanding the relevance of dopaminergic and noradrenergic changes for brain ageing and dementia, and Jiyun Shin (right) for her contribution to the understanding of memory formation in the neocortex. >> More here

Imaging memory traces over half a lifetime in the medial temporal lobe: processing precise and gist memories
Major controversies in memory research concern the involvement of the hippocampus (HIP) in the retrieval of remote memories and the nature of this involvement in memory precision. Theories of memory consolidation have so far mostly focused on the role of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in the retrieval of remote memories essentially because of its anatomical connection with the HIP. Conversely, little is known about the involvement of other cortical areas such as the lateral (LEC) and medial entorhinal (MEC) cortices and the peri-(PER) and postrhinal (POR) cortices within this frame despite their tight connection to the HIP and their role in retrieving recent memories. >> More here

Welcoming two new members to our CCO Coordination Office
In October, we launched our search for new SHKs to support the Z team. With luck we found two student helpers. Since early December 2020, Yvonne Nguyen (HU) and Madlena Kozaeva (Charité) regularly touch base during weekly ZOOMs, share feedback and discuss new tasks. We are looking forward to working in-person in 2021.
