Auditory system dynamics and multisensory processing

Team research topics:

The team combines advanced analytical and modeling techniques with a broad array of experimental approaches: two-photon calcium imaging, multichannel electrophysiology, optogenetics and behavioral analyses of auditory perception. The principal projects of the team include the large-scale deciphering of sound representation in the mouse auditory system, the development of optogenetic methods for generating auditory perception through the targeted activation of central neural networks, and exploration of the role in perception of neuronal connections between brain areas processing different sensory modalities.

Projects

Operations structuring auditory perception

Manipulation of the neuronal representations of sounds

Reinforcement learning models for sensory discrimination tasks

Multisensory interactions in the cortex

Main techniques used:

To achieve our goals, we combine a wide range of experimental approaches, including two-photon calcium imaging, multi-channel electrophysiology, optogenetics and mouse behavior. We also use state-of-the-art mathematical analyses, theoretical models and deep neural network approaches.
