Cortex Club marks fifteen years of inspiring neuroscience discussions! We are thrilled to invite you to the Cortex Club 15th birthday event where we could not imagine celebrating with anyone else but the brilliant minds behind Cortex Club.
 Zoltan Molnar Abhishek Banerjee Kaetzel Lab

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming Cortex Club talk by Professor Michael Hasselmo Michael Hasselmo from Boston University. Prof. Hasselmo will be delivering a fascinating talk entitled ‘Egocentric and Allocentric Representations in Cortical Structures’.

We are excited to announce the upcoming Cortex Club talk by Professor Shoi Shi Shoi Shi, entitled ‘Deciphering the Mystery of Sleep: the insights from comparative neuroscience’.
 
Professor Vladyslav Vyazovskiy Vlad Vyazovskiy will be delivering the introduction.

Alex Pollen was in our lab for his MSc Neurosci project in 2005-2006. He was already committed to research on comparative brain development (doi.org/10.1111/j.1469…; doi.org/10.1242/dev.10…). We are very much looking forward to his first visit back to Oxford as a professor.

Tune in to our new CortexCast episode with Katy Willard interviewing Björn Vahsen to discuss his ongoing research on Motor neurone disease using iPSCs to co-culture microglia and motor neurons.

Cortex Club in the 13th Annual Oxford Neuroscience Symposium! Oxford Neuroscience

We are extremely proud to be part of the vibrant neuroscience community here at the University of Oxford🧠

Passing the torch at the (belated) Cortex Club handover dinner!

Last week Cortex Club was ✨officially✨ passed from the former committee to the current team!

Here’s to continued collaboration and passion for neuroscience 🧠

In today’s Cortex Club ‘Cortech’ workshop by inspiring Oxford Neuroscience professor Miriam Klein-Flügge 🧠🇪🇺🇺🇦 I learned more about non-invasive brain stimulation and novel transcranial ultrasound stimulation than in my 8+ years of neuroscience training. Great format & brilliant presentation!

For CorTech HT’24 Professor Miriam Klein-Flügge will be sharing her insights on Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation🧠
 
Join us on Thursday 8th February from 15:00-17:00 at the Pharmacology Seminar Room (OX1 3QT).
