Our research seeks to understand large-scale circuits in the brain and engineer novel brain-based therapies.
-
The brain is a network. We want to know how the activity of neurons in one part of the network depends on and relates to the rest of the network.

Coordination
Even an act as simple as looking and reaching to pick up a cup recruits neurons throughout the brain. What are these neurons saying to each other? Read More…

Decision-making
Neurons in different regions of the brain have access to different kinds of information. When we are faced with a choice, the different regions exchange information with each other. Who decides? Read More…

Speech
Language is a uniquely human property of the brain but speaking depends on constructing a sensory-motor interface, something all brains must do. How are our brains unique? Read More…

Brain mapping
Understanding how neurons work together in large-scale circuits depends on developing new technologies to precisely map, monitor and control neuronal activity across the circuit. Read More…
