Our Laboratory believe that altered neural synchrony may underlie many brain disorders that disrupt attention. We study the brain mechanisms that allow us to focus our attention on a specific task while filtering out irrelevant distractions. But we would like you to meet the team behind it all. Feature Attention in the Ventral Pre-Arcuate. Robert Desimone talks brains at Science by the Pint.
Mapping Sensory Stimuli to Behavioral Output. The Role of Neuromodulation in Social Learning. Cognitive Control of Olfactory Learning. Our laboratory studies how sensory stimuli drive behavioral responses and internal states depending on past experience. We focus at the level of neural circuits, using olfaction as a model to address three central problems. First, we are working to anatomically and functionally delineate the circuitry that connects sensory representations to specific behavioral outcomes.
To learn more about our research. Located in the heart of the western United States, Utah is home. To world class outdoor recreation. We are interested in the elucidation of the protein machinery at the. Synapse that governs long-term storage of information. We are interested in how these processes go awry in neurological diseases.
The Tye Lab employs a multi-disciplinary approach including optogenetic, in vivo and ex vivo electrophysiological, pharmacological and imaging techniques to find mechanistic explanations for how emotional and motivational states influence behavior, in health and disease. How are emotional or motivational associations assigned to environmental cues? Where do the circuits processing associative information diverge to differentially encode positive and negative valence? If so, what is the mechanism? .
Welcome to the Wickersham Laboratory, also known as the Genetic Neuroengineering Group. We engineer genetic techniques for neuroscience and neurology, to allow increased understanding of the organization of the brain and improved treatments for neurological disorders. We are always open to the possibility of talented and motivated individuals joining our team, whether as visiting students, technical assistants, or postdoctoral associates and fellows. Please contact us if you are interested.
