Schwartz, Gregory W
Associate Professor of Ophthalmology, Neuroscience and Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences
Bio
Research in our lab focuses on the circuit mechanisms underlying sensory computation. We use the mouse retina as a model system because it allows us to stimulate the circuit precisely with its natural... [more]
Searl, Timothy J
Research Assistant Professor of Neuroscience
Sekerkova, Gabriella
Research Assistant Professor of Neuroscience
Bio
My research is focused on sensory neuroscience with special interest in espins, a novel family of multifunctional actin-bundling proteins. These proteins are present at high concentration in the paral... [more]
Shen, Weixing

Bio
Local synaptic circuits in motor-frontal cortex engage in neural operations underlying many aspects of cognition and behavior – motor control, executive functions, working memory, and more – yet circu... [more]
Slutzky, Marc W
Professor of Neurology (Comprehensive Neurology), Neuroscience and McCormick School of Engineering
Bio
In the clinical realm, I see both general neurology and epilepsy patients. In addition to my clinical responsibilities, my research is focused on neural prosthetics, including brain-machine interfaces... [more]
