Neurons Don't Work Alone: What Neuroscientists Know About Memory Formation

🧠How do memories form in the brain? How do individual neurons create memories? In this episode of Neuroscience Perspectives, Ueli Rutishauser, PhD, professor of Neurosurgery, Neurology & Biomedical Sciences, and director of Human Neurophysiology Research and the Center for Neural Science and Medicine at Cedars-Sinai, explores groundbreaking neuroscience research on memory formation, learning, and neural activity in the human brain. Using single-neuron recordings, Dr. Rutishauser explains to Dr. John Foxe how the hippocampus and other brain regions encode episodic memory and cognition. This conversation dives into how brain cells communicate, how memories are formed and retrieved, and why studying neurons at the single-cell level is transforming cognitive neuroscience.

We caught up with Dr. Rutishauser in San Diego at the Society for Neuroscience Conference #SfN25
