Moser Lab

Moser Lab is a neuroscience research group focused on understanding how the brain processes spatial information and navigation. They study specialized neurons called "grid cells" and "place cells," which form a brain map of our environment, helping us find our way. By exploring these cells, the lab aims to uncover how the brain encodes memory, orientation, and navigation, with implications for understanding diseases like Alzheimer’s. Their work combines techniques from physics, biology, and engineering to better understand brain function and develop potential treatments for memory and spatial awareness issues.
