To Feed Or Not To Feed: Hypothalamic Hunger Circuits In The Face Of Competing Needs

How are decisions to obtain food made in a complex environment? Hypothalamic hunger circuits are often thought of as master regulators of feeding, but what happens when there…

Developing a Versatile Genome Engineering Toolbox for Precision Genetic Medicine and Functional Genomics in the Living Brain

Precise genome editing has transformed biology and is beginning to reshape medicine, yet translating these technologies to the brain remains a major challenge. In this seminar, I will…

Functional Compartmentalization of Dendritic Voltage Dynamics During Spatial Learning

My work investigates how dendrites organize memory-related information within individual hippocampal neurons. Using in vivo voltage imaging in behaving mice, I show that dendritic compartments do not simply…
