Goals:
The research in my lab focuses on investigating neural mechanisms underlying essential cognitive control functions, such as visual attention, decision-making, and reward learning, and on developing novel and innovative approaches to improve our understanding and enhance these essential functions.​
​
Research Questions:
-
How do behavior goals shape visual processing?
-
What is the circuit organization in the frontoparietal network that mediates different cognitive control functions? How do different cortical areas within this network interact with each other?
-
To what extent can we endogenously control different functional groups of neurons within the frontoparietal network? What is their impact on behavior?
Research Approach:
Risk seeking behavior across experimental seesions
Salience map of a natural image
Large-scale Neuropixels
recordings in the brain
​
Closed-loop experimental design
