Research Areas

The swift and accurate processing of visual information is one of the keys to a safe and comfortable life. The Recognition and Judgment Unit tries to reveal the circuit mechanisms of such information processing by analyzing the activity of populations of neurons using two-photon microscopy. The resultant knowledge is expected to help develop new technologies that will improve the levels of safety and comfort in our lives.

Research Subject

  1. Investigating the visual information processing
  2. Elucidating population activity of neurons with two-photon microscopy and multiunit recording electrodes
