个人简介
Kate Jeffery is a neuroscientist researching how the brain makes an internal representation of space, the so-called "cognitive map", which it can use for navigation. As a medical student she became interested in the question of how the brain makes "knowledge" using neurons. After qualification she embarked upon a research career to investigate this question by studying the activity of a class of brain cells called place cells, which seem to form the core of a place-knowledge system used for both navigation and memory. Her current research focuses on how the brain represents complex space, with a particular focus on two main issues: three dimensional space, and the internal “sense of direction”. she joined UCL in 1993 and went on to found the Institute of Behavioural Neuroscience in the Division of Psychology and Language Sciences at UCL. She has recently been appointed Head of the School of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Glasgow. She is co-director of the electrophysiology company Axona Ltd, which makes high-density recording systems for behavioural neuroscientists. She is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Biology and the Royal Institute of Navigation.
