Cellular & Systems Neuroscience
From single neurons to large-scale brain circuits, this area investigates how glia and neurons are generated and how their properties shape the function of entire neural systems. GSN faculty study neurogenesis and synaptic integration of new neurons, synaptic transmission, network dynamics, and circuit computation using cutting-edge imaging, electrophysiology, and genetic tools – building a multi-level understanding of how the brain is organized, how it operates and how it can be repaired.
