I am interested in the functioning of neurons under nonstationary conditions like background oscillations
or increased background noise levels. My approach includes patch-clamp recordings from acute brain slices
and numerical simulations on a biophysical level.
I am using the Axon Instruments
Axoclamp 2A
amplifier and
LabView 6.1
for data aquisition and
NEURON
for the numerical simulation of electrophysiological events.
Before I came to Salk I was doing research at the
Scripps Institute of Oceanography
, La Jolla, CA, USA, working on the motility of marine cyanobacteria, the
Institute of Microbiology and Genetics
of the University of Vienna, Austria, working on translation initiation, and the
Max-Planck Institute for Brain Research
in Frankfurt/Main, Germany, working on synaptic plasticity in the cerebral cortex (Ph.D. thesis).
