Answer

In 2002, Moser's research group was given the status of a separate "centre of excellence" by the Norwegian government. This recognition was based on the group's work on the mechanisms underlying spatial memory, and their development of a new technology for mapping the brain's activity in real time. The centre is now known as the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience.
