I am interested in the way in which experience instantiates itself into the physical structure of neural circuits, that is the physical underpinning of long lasting memory. During mammalian development synaptic connectivity changes dramatically as axons...

I am interested in understanding, from a computational standpoint, how brains process information. They do this in a large network of interconnected computational elements (neurons) which communicate with chemical and electrical signals. In mammalian...

Research Associate

I am a neurobiologist, and my core scientific interest lies in understanding the physical basis of fundamental neuronal circuitry of the human brain and how it changes with experience, disease, and the process of aging. Studying the comprehensive analysis...

Research Associate

I'm focusing on questions in neuroscience that can be answered only by having precise wiring diagrams. To get these diagrams I am working on new ways (algorithms) to extract and study neuron wiring diagrams from volume electron microscopy. I've applied my...
