V&B Extra: The Neuroscience of Change

Views and Brews

By: Rebecca McInroy

How current research in neuroscience could help us live better to nurture brain health, remember more and imagine a brighter future.

Listen back to this special Views and Brews Extra recorded live at the Memory Matters event hosted by The Center for Learning and Memory at The University of Texas at Austin, May 12, 2016.

KUT’s Rebecca McInroy moderates a discussion, introduced by Daniel Johnston, with neuroscientists: Laura Colgin, Michael Drew, and Jarrod Lewis-Peacock.

About The Guests

Dr. Colgin’s research focuses on understanding how brain rhythms, electrical waves generated by synchronized activity across neurons, are involved in cognitive processing. She uses multi-site electrophysiological recordings from freely behaving rodents to investigate how brain rhythms in the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex affect mnemonic operations and behavior.

Dr. Drew is interested in understanding the functional significance of adult hippocampal neurogenesis, which is the birth of neurons in the hippocampus of the adult brain. He uses inducible genetic manipulation and behavioral testing in mice to reveal the underlying cognitive and emotional processes that are modulated by neurogenesis.

Dr. Lewis-Peacock’s research combines behavioral methods, functional neuroimaging, and computational approaches to explore the interplay between attention, learning, and memory in the healthy adult brain. His lab strives to understand how we remember and why we forget, and seeks to characterize how people dynamically deploy their cognitive resources in the pursuit of goals.
