Congratulations to Prof. Dr. Marlene Bartos, who has been awarded a Reinhart Koselleck Project Grant from the German Research Foundation (DFG) to study “The role of the inputs and outputs of the dentate gyrus in the formation of memory traces and the control of behavior”.
The German Research Foundation (DFG) runs the Reinhart Koselleck Program to back only those researchers who have demonstrated exceptional achievements in their fields. This funding scheme provides them with the freedom to undertake pioneering projects that carry a constructive level of risk, encouraging courage and unconventional thinking. Named after Reinhart Koselleck, a leading German historian of the twentieth century renowned for his role in shaping modern social history and for his independent, questioning mindset, the program honors his legacy following his death in 2006.
