<p>One of my favorite labs on campus.
Stunning work! &nbsp;this is the future of neurosci. &nbsp;(lab is on Arastradero in &nbsp;CNC building
CNC Cracking the Neural Code. &nbsp;with Karl D.</p>

<p>Mark: &nbsp;Assoc Prof &nbsp;joint Bio and Apl Phys.
HHMI investig.</p>

<p>Neural circuit dynamics and optical imaging</p>

<p>3 major efforts:</p>

<p>in vivo fluor imaging and bahevior: &nbsp;cerebelar-dep motor control</p>

<p>dev of fiber-optic fluor microendoscopy to study learning in behaving mice and for clin use in humans</p>

<p>dev of hi-thruput mass parallel study of large # of Drosphila concurrently</p>

<p>emphasis on learning and memory proc.</p>

<p>our approach is a combo of bheavior, ephys, and comput methods using
hi-res fluor optical imaging capable of resolving indiv neurons and dendrites.</p>

<p>want to examine dyanmics of neuronal poplulations or of dendritic compartments in behaving animals.</p>

<p>work with model orgs: &nbsp;mice and flies &nbsp;but also humans.</p>

<p>control and learning of motor behaviors
and potential app to human clinical use.</p>

<p>long chat with both Thomas and Benjamin after the talk by Rainer Friedrich (great talk);
visit them on Arastradero! great guys. &nbsp;Mark has labs there and in Clark (as does
Karl D).</p>
