Lab activities
“Wissenschaft im Kino”, May 2023
On May 23rd 2023, 6 p.m. the new documentary movie “The scent of fear” was shown at Moritzhof Magdeburg. Anne Albrecht was one of the experts invited to discussed the movie afterwards.
NWG Meeting, March 2023
Our lab took part in the biannual meeting of the German Neuroscience Society in Göttingen, March 22-24 2023. We will present the projects Characterization of circadian modulators in relay stations of prefrontal-to- hippocampal circuits via viral tracing and laser microdissection (Chirich Barreira L, Henschke J, Pakan J, Albrecht A), Evaluation of the circadian expression of orexin receptors in the mouse brain by RNAscope® (Krause GM, Albrecht A) and Modulation of emotional behavior by HCA2 receptor deficiency in chronic skin inflammation ( Lange H, Gaffal E, Albrecht A) as posters.
Lab talk @ “Wissenschaft im Rathaus”, Feb 2023
On February 27, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. Anne Albrecht gave a talk for the general public in Magdeburg (in German) about stress effects on memory, stress resilience and our own work in this field:
“Guter Stress, schlechter Stress – Wie Stress unsere Gefühle und sogar unser Gedächtnis beeinflussen kann”

116th Annual Meeting Anatomische Gesellschaft, Sep 2022
From September 20-23 2022 the yearly meeting of the “Anatomische Gesellschaft” took place at the Institute of Anatomy of Charite in Berlin. Our group presented 3 Posters:
Evaluation of the circadian expression of orexin receptors in the mouse brain by RNAscope® by Gina M. Krause, Characterization of circadian modulators in relay stations of prefrontal-to- hippocampal circuits via laser microdissection by Lara Chirich Barreira and Role of the HCA1 receptor in skin inflammation by Hagen Lange (in person presentation by Anne Albrecht). Moreover, Erik Wolniczak from our institute presented his MD Thesis project The inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate-3-kinase-A is a putative regulator of social behavoir and motor function.
Lab excursion day July 2022 – hiking at Harz mountains
On Juli 20 2022 our institute spend a fun day at Wernigerode at the Harz mountains visiting Wernigerode castle, the wildlife park Christianental and hiking through the mountains around Wernigerode.
FENS Forum Paris, July 2022
From July 9th-13th the largest convention of neuroscientists in Europe took place in Paris and we were also part of this very exciting meeting, the first one in 2 years were we could catch up, discuss and see each other again in person and not in front of our screens!
2 posters from the Albrecht lab were presented on Sunday, July 10th. Gina presented the work of her Masters thesis “Evaluation of the circadian expression of orexin receptors in the mouse brain by RNAscope®” and Alice our project “Choosing memory retrieval strategies: a critical role for inhibition in the dentate gyrus“, freshly submitted as a preprint here.
