Dendritic activity and neuronal output during sensory perception [ 2016 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Lucy Palmer (Principal investigator) ,  Prof Greg Stuart

Brief description A fundamental goal of neuroscience is to understand how sensory experiences arise from activity in the brain. This is no easy feat and is the basis of the research in this proposal. Here, using cutting edge recording techniques, the activity of brain cells within the cortex will be measured during sensory-based behavioural tasks. This research will provide insight into therapeutic approaches to numerous brain diseases where sensory processing is compromised.
