Introduction

Dr. Brown's neurobiology lab employs in vivo microscopic imaging technologies such as two-photon microscopy and functional imaging of neuronal and hemodynamic activity that allow the visualization of neuronal structures deep within the living brain or the processing of sensory information in real-time.

A central goal of Dr. Brown's research program is to use these experimental approaches to characterize the neurobiological mechanisms that allow the cerebral cortex to develop normally and change throughout life in response to new experiences (eg. learning, drug exposure) or pathology such as stroke or diabetes.

Donations support our students and faculty in their mission to produce internationally recognized advances in neuroscience knowledge.

People
