About Us

Our work spans levels of analysis—from neural microcircuits and systems neuroscience, through behaviour and cognition, to computational models and artificial intelligence—creating an integrated approach to understanding learning and memory.

We greatly value continuity across scales: we bring together experimental, theoretical, and applied perspectives, linking brain mechanisms to behaviour while extending into computational and translational domains.

An ambitious and interdisciplinary research community

We bring together researchers from across departments and institutes at Durham and Newcastle, alongside a wider network of collaborators, creating a space where diverse approaches to learning and memory come together.

Engaging across multiple disciplines

Our research projects span multiple levels of analysis and model systems, from neural circuits to behaviour and cognition, and from computational to translational approaches, addressing fundamental questions about learning and memory.
