Circuit mechanisms of experience-dependent hippocampal representations - Jeffrey Magee 

Dr. Magee’s research is interested in producing a biophysically based understanding of cortical circuit function. In this talk, he discusses research in which he examined the microcircuit mechanisms of place fields using whole-cell voltage recordings from hippocampal CA1 neurons in mice running on a linear track. Jeffrey Magee is a professor of neuroscience at the Baylor College of Medicine, the Cullen Foundation Distinguished Endowed Chair at the Jan and Dan Neurological Research Institute, and an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
