Memory and Cognition Lab

University of Connecticut School of Medicine

Department of Neuroscience

Welcome to the Memory and Cognition Lab!

We are located at the UConn Health, Farmington Campus in the department of Neuroscience.

We are interested in the neural mechanisms of memory formation that support flexible cognitive behaviors, and how these processes evolve across the lifespan or go awry during psychiatric diseases.

  • Dissecting hippocampal circuit’s function and dysfunction in the selective consolidation of long-term memories

  • Dissecting the function and formation of diverse hippocampal neuronal populations supporting memory discrimination
