Biography

Eleonore Duvelle is a Research Associate at the Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging at the University of Glasgow. Her research primarily focuses on understanding how episodic memories are stored within neural networks and their influence on complex decision-making. She investigates learning and memorization, specifically how the brain encodes, retrieves, and utilizes memories to guide daily actions. One of her key areas of study includes 'place cells', which are hippocampal neurons believed to encode spatial memories. By recording and analyzing the activity of these cells in rats engaging in complex tasks, Duvelle aims to reveal the mechanisms by which memory influences future decisions. Her contributions to the field have been recognized through various publications, including work on the replicability of behavioral evidence related to spatial navigation.
