PhD in Systems Neuroscience

Research in the Decision Circuits Lab located at the Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience Berlin and Institute of Biology at Humboldt University Berlin, Germany, focuses on the fundamental neural principles that underlie decision-making./nBy employing state-of-the-art tools in systems neuroscience, we seek to develop cortical circuits models and ask how adaptive neuromodulation enables flexible behavior./nResearch in systems neuroscience focusing on the role of hippocampal-cortical interactions underlying memory consolidation and decision-making./nUse of state-of-the-art experimental tools such as quantitative psychophysics, high-throughput electrophysiology, and optogenetics in rats./nCollaborative development of analyses and computational models of behavior and cortical functions.
