Cortical Circuits Group
How does the brain work?
We investigate processes in the brains of awake, behaving animals in order to reveal mechanisms underlying perception, learning and memory.

Methods
- In vivo electrophysiology from large populations of neurons.
- In vivo multiphoton microscopy of structure and activity.
- Optogenetics.
Collaboration
We are part of Centre for Integrative Neuroplasticity (CINPLA) - an interdisciplinary consortium uniting experimental neuroscience and computational modelling.
