Expertise
Research Interests:
- Cellular and network physiology in animal models of neuropsychiatric disorders
- The roles of interneurons in neuronal microcircuits
- Intrinsic electrical properties and their modulation as determinants of discharge behaviour and excitability
- Intrastriatal neuronal connectivity, synaptic dynamics and modulation in relation to direct and indirect striatofugal projections
Methods:
Multineuron patch-clamp recordings in acute brain slices, partially in combination with optogenetic and retrograde labelling techniques, post-hoc staining and confocal microscopy/ anatomical reconstruction.
