Project Summary: To understand the function of neural circuits in the brain and spinal cord, one would like to perturb specific neurons and to measure the response of the targeted and neighboring cells. Optical methods provide approaches for both...
Project Summary: Cortical projection neurons are integral to many of the most important capacities of neural circuitry, including sensation, motion, and higher-order cognition. These glutamatergic neurons cross extremely long distances -- up to 10,000s...
Project Summary: General anesthesia transformed the way we perform surgery and is essential for many diagnosis or therapeutic procedures. Yet, the spatiotemporal dynamics leading to a state of general anesthesia are still to be deciphered.
