Research summary
Prof. Carandini runs a joint research group
with Prof. Kenneth Harris, the Cortexlab.
His work aims to understand how the brain processes sensory signals, and
integrates them with internal signals to guide decision and action. The goal is
to understand these processes at the level of large populations of individual
neurons. The laboratory investigates these questions with advanced experimental
techniques and with computational analysis. Carandini is a founding member of
the International Brain
Laboratory.
