Outline

In this research area, we will elucidate the principles of the neuronal and circuit scales that give rise to brain function using cutting-edge approaches in the life sciences that integrates multiscale structural and functional imaging data. Our study will help us understand the development of brain function and disease, reconstruct them in silico, and lead to more rational decoding of brain function and therapeutic strategies.
