Denis Alevi studies how memories are reorganized over time in the brain. His research combines computational modeling, mathematical analysis, and theory to uncover mechanistic principles of systems memory consolidation: how memories are transferred across circuits, how episodic representations become more semantic and generalized, and how these processes relate to distributed engram dynamics and representational drift. He works across levels of description, from synaptic plasticity and circuit mechanisms to population-level models of memory, and is also interested in statistical learning in changing environments. He has further worked on quantitative analysis of animal behavior videos and developed Brian2CUDA, a GPU backend for the spiking neural network simulator Brian2.
