Tools for Investigating the Neural Basis of Learning and Memory

In our latest episode, we explored the cutting-edge techniques neuroscientists use to understand learning and memory. Prof. Holtmaat explains the use of two-photon microscopy, a powerful imaging tool that allows researchers to observe brain activity at the cellular level. For example, by combining two-photon microscopy with fluorescent calcium indicators, we can indirectly measure neuronal activity. As advancements in research methods continue, our knowledge of the brain's learning and memory mechanisms continues to expand.
