Neuroscientists have long been working to understand how biological structures can produce the complex behaviors that are generated by the nervous system.... Read more about Florian Engert
Neurons acquire multiple functional properties through an experience-dependent development during a limited time in early postnatal life (“critical periods”).... Read more about Michela Fagiolini
We seek to understand the mechanisms by which heterogenous cell types orchestrate synchronous network patterns for brain computations as fundamental as...
Certain basic cognitive processes are central to navigating the world around us. Attention, for example is important for almost all of our conscious actions,... Read more about Brielle Ferguson
My lab is broadly interested in the mechanisms of signaling and transport across cellular membranes. Our research encompasses several protein families: Nramp... Read more about Rachelle Gaudet
Program Director, Speech and Hearing Bioscience and Technology (SHBT) Associate Professor of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery
Sensory hair cells of the inner ear transduce mechanical stimuli into electrical signals which are transmitted to the brain. The primary goal of my research is... Read more about Gwenaëlle Géléoc
Edward R. and Anne G. Lefler Professor of Neurobiology
Our laboratory uses mouse molecular genetics, in vitro signaling approaches, circuit mapping, electrophysiological and behavioral analyses to gain... Read more about David Ginty
The mission of the Greka laboratory is to define fundamental aspects of membrane protein biology and dissect mechanisms of cellular homeostasis. The...
Professor of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery
Sensory transduction converts stimulus information into electrical information and is at the interface between the world around us and the brain. To...
Assistant Professor of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery
Our lab's research focuses on hair cells, which are the sensory cells of the inner ear. Hair cells detect sub-nanometer vibrations, induced by sounds or...
Work in my lab is focused on understanding how signals in the brain lead to particular patterns of behavior. We utilize a combination of behavioral,...
