Research Experience
- Involved in research projects on attention in the visual cortex and dysfunction in schizophrenia; Explores synapses with Monte Carlo methods (MCell) and analyzes brain activity using independent components analysis (ICA).
Background
- Research interests include exploring the biophysical properties of synapses to the function of neural systems, particularly using combined experimental and computational approaches. Core issues addressed are how dendrites integrate synaptic signals in neurons, how neural circuits generate behavior, and how learning and sleep adaptively modify these circuits.
Miscellany
- Participated in the 25th Joint Symposium on Neural Computation; Attended the NeurIPS conference; Involved in a very popular MOOC on learning techniques; Participated in discussions about the latest developments in the BRAIN Initiative.
