2014 Vice Minister of NHFPC YIN Li Visited Tsinghua IDG/McGovern Brain Institute
On March 17, 2014, Mr. YIN Li, the Vice Minister of the National Health and Family Planning Commission (NHFPC) and Vice Minister of the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) visited Tsinghua IDG/McGovern Brain Institute.
Patrick J. McGovern, 1937-2014
It is with great sadness that we report the death of Mr. Patrick McGovern, on March 19, 2014. Since the founding of the IDG/McGovern Institute for Brain Research at Tsinghua, he has been a great source of inspiration and encouragement. He will be greatly missed. We will carry on his spirit and dedicate our every effort into studying how the brain works and discovering new ways to prevent or treat brain disorders in China for the world.

1D-In vivo imaging of immediate early gene expression reveals layer-specific memory
In the cerebral cortex, sensory processing of external stimuli can evoke neural networks to fire flurried electrical responses. These responses can leave neurological traces from a particular experience like crumb trails, which can be strengthened for long-term recall. However, due to the complexity of the connections and sheer number of neurons within the cortex, understanding these traces has been daunting for neuroscientists.
