The goal is to identify and study connected neurons in visual cortex, frontal
cortex and the pulvinar as animals are engaged in perceptual behavior. The
project provides the opportunity to learn and implement a variety of cutting-edge
techniques including </span><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:windowtext">viral-based circuit
tracing and optogenetic methods to identify connected neurons, multiphoton
imaging, high-density electrode recordings and computational modeling. The
proposed work is a collaborative endeavor across the labs of Anitha Pasupathy and
Wyeth Bair (University of Washington), Farran Briggs (University of Rochester)
