Personal profile
Research interests
To identify factors that determine whether or not two neurons will connect to one another and to understand how these decisions shape the synaptic networks responsible for processing visual information. The core of my approach to answering these questions has been careful imaging of synaptic connectivity in developing and mature neural circuits.
