The cortex is a massively interconnected network of neurons that generates perception, complex thoughts and action. Our research takes a bottom-up approach to understanding how these neural circuits are functionally organized and how dysfunction in these circuits contributes to neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases.
Our lab is focused on understanding the functional organization of neocortical circuits and their role in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases. Visit our Research interests page to learn more.
