Biography
Important Stuff
Computational and Experimental Neuroplasticity Laboratory
I am the PI of the CENlab. We study the biophysical and biochemical mechanisms of long term memory storage using computational and electrophysiological techniques. Specific projects include:- A collaboration with Dietmar Plenz and Jeanette Hellgren Kotaleski to study synaptic plasticity in the striatum.
- A collaboration with Ted Abel, Manuela Zaccolo and Seth Grant to study the role of AKAPs in hippocampal synaptic plasiticity.
