Nobel Prize Laureate Edvard I. Moser to Join MediCampus Europeo’s Beyond the Prize Medical Lecture Series

MediCampus Europeo (MCE), Faculty of Medicine in Malta, is pleased to announce that Professor Edvard I. Moser, PhD, recipient of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, will be the next distinguished guest of its Beyond the Prize Medical Lecture Series on 24 November 2026.

An internationally renowned Norwegian neuroscientist, Professor Moser is best known for his groundbreaking discovery of grid cells, specialised neurons that form a key part of the brain’s internal navigation system.

This discovery revolutionised our understanding of how the brain represents space, enabling us to navigate our surroundings and contributing to research into spatial cognition and memory.
