Research

We are interested in the functional organization of neuronal circuits in the basal ganglia underlying sensory and motor functions. We use various electrophysiological, optical, and morphological methods to study the local and long-range synaptic connectivity of these circuits. Our lab is located at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, please contact us for more information.
