Research topics
- Neural basis of spatial navigation
- Computation in the hippocampal formation
- Collective properties and dynamics of coupled neural networks
|
Scientific Approach
- Investigation of spatial behavior of gerbils (rodents) in real and virtual environments. The work on virtual environments is performed with the help of Bernstein Virtual Reality Facility for rodents. The work is combined with multicellular electrophysiological recordings in the behaving gerbil.
- Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations of neurocomputational models
