Welcome to the Hippocampus In Health and Disease website.

Professor O’Keefe who has been jointly awarded the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine will deliver a lecture entitled ‘The Hippocampus as a Cognitive Map: an update’.
The symposium which is organised by Science Foundation Ireland-funded Investigators Dr Yvonne Nolan and Professor John F. Cryan also features a number of other Irish neuroscientists who work on hippocampal biology, and will prelude the honorary conferring ceremony for Nobel Laureate John O’Keefe.
