Speaker der FAM Konferenz
DFG Logo

The Functional Architecture of Memory conference features 15 of the world leading experts on memory function coming from USA, Canada, UK, Spain and Germany (see the list of speakers on the right side).

The FAM conference aims at bringing new insights on today's major controversies in recognition memory by bridging human and animal memory function. The goal of the conference is to integrate findings emerging from behavioral, in-vivo and in-vitro electrophysiology, mutagenesis, molecular biology, optogenetics and fMRI techniques.

The conference starts with a Data Blitz Session to which participants are welcome to contribute. Also, there will be a speakers/students only round table each day.
