Research Interests
I am interested in employing engineering tools and concepts to develop innovative solutions to pressing questions in neuroscience. This is using thermo-electro-mechanical techniques to selectively measure, perturb and modulate dynamics of neural circuits to elucidate how biophysical mechanisms underlying neural activity contribute to observable behaviors and neurological disorders
Dendritic Computation and Synaptic Plasticity
Dendritic spines are the brain's microprocessors of learning and memory
Thermal Modulation
Thermal modulation of neuronal timing: harnessing temperature shifts to regulate brain rhythm
Nanotechnology revolutionizes dialogue with the brain
