Our lab investigates fundamental mechanisms of patterned electrical activity in neural circuits, encompassing theoretical, computational, and experimental studies. Of particular interest are general studies of how single neuron properties contribute to the synchronization of neural circuits and the neural basis of respiration. We also have ongoing projects in the development of real-time software for electrophysiological experiments (www.rtxi.org) and mechanisms of peripheral nerve conduction block by high frequency (5-50 kHz) stimuli. Several of these projects involve the integration of in vitro experiments with real-time computational models. Other interests include nonlinear dynamical systems and oscillatory electronic circuits inspired by some of our neurobiological research.
