Eduard Kelemen works at the National Institute of Mental Health where he studies neurobiological processes of learning and organization of memory engrams. With a group of collaborators he uses methods of electrophysiological recording of neuronal ensemble activity in laboratory animals as they learn to solve cognitive tasks and in sleep during consolidation of learned information. He explores cognitive processes in healthy animals as well as in animal models of brain disorders.
