Jérôme Epsztein is a scientist at INMED. His research work helps understanding the mechanisms underlying the memory of places and events of our everyday life. He got a phD degree at the Aix-Marseille university in 2005 for his work on hippocampus at INMED. He then moved to the BCCN in Berlin where his work contributed to the development of new techniques for recording neurones intracellulalry while animals were freely moving.

Back at INMED, he got an INSERM tenured position in 2008. His project elected by Amidex and ERC in 2013 focuses on the intracellular mechanisms underlying the coding of spatial information in hippocampus, investigated with patch-clamp recordings in animals while in exploratory mode.
