Hi Friends,

In this video I talk to you about another influential women in the STEM fields. Her name is May-Britt Moser, a Psychologist and Neuroscientist from Norway. Her and her husband Edvard won a Nobel Prize for their study of grid cells. Grid cells are a type of cell in the brain that act as a GPS system to help you know where you are and how you got there.

Her work on memory and the brain is extremely important and could lead to developing treatments for Alzheimers and other memory loss related diseases.

Thank you for watching. For more content check out my other social media.
