Role of dendritic information processing in visual circuit computations [ 2015 - 2018 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Stephen Williams (Principal investigator)

Brief description Vision is the primary sensory modality in man, and its disturbance carries an enormous socio-economic burden. The dynamic operations of the neuronal assemblies that underlie vision are poorly understood, partly because of an incomplete description of the computational properties of visual neuronal circuits. The aims of the application are to mechanistically dissect defined computational operations of visual neural circuits using advanced electrophysiological and optical recording techniques.
