Dr Gilad Silberberg
Microcircuits in the basal ganglia and neocortex
The European Neuroscience Institute at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm

Research Area

Our primary interest is to understand sensory-motor processes, by studying the structure and dynamics of the underlying neuronal microcircuits.
The regions of interest are the neocortex and basal ganglia, and the synaptic connections between these brain areas.
The techniques used include whole-cell recordings from neurons in vitro and in vivo, dendritic patch-recordings, 3D morphological reconstructions of recorded neurons, as well as computational modeling.
