Lecture: Unveiling the temporal dynamics of odor coding with intracranial recordings

NOSE member Garmt Dijksterhuis organizes a Lecture by Gülce Dikecligil, PhD, Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Pennsylvania, at Maastricht University

The majority of our current understanding on how the human brain processes odor information arises from neuroimaging studies. While these studies have revealed a great deal about the spatial pattern of odor responses, relatively little is known about the temporal dynamics of odor processing in the human brain. In this talk I am going to present intracranial EEG and preliminary single neuron data obtained from epilepsy patients participating in odor tasks and discuss the novel insights these approaches can bring to our understanding of the neural mechanisms of human olfaction.

The lecture will be organized on Tuesday, September 30, Oxfordlaan 55, Maastricht University Randwyck Campus
