PhD, Professor.
Courses on AACIMP 2011 — 1. Cellular Neurophysiology and Modelling. 2. Cable Properties of Neurons. 3. Nonlinear Dynamics of Network Excitability and Oscillations.
Country — USA.
Place of employment: Professor of Neural Science and Mathematics, Center for Neural Science, New York University; Chair Professor of Neural and Cognitive Computation, Tsinghua University, Beijing.
Specialist in sphere of biophysical mechanisms and theoretical foundations of dynamic neural computation.
Spheres of science researches: effects of active properties in dendritic membrane; intrinsic mechanisms for repetitive firing and bursting oscillations of indivdual cells; collective rhythms of neurons in networks; neuronal oscillations studies: effects of electrical and synaptic coupling and correlated input on synchrony in mutually inhibitory sub-populations; synaptic depression and other mechanisms for spontaneous rhythmogenesis in developing neural systems; mechanisms for alternations in neuronal competition models of perceptual bistability, such as binocular rivalry; dynamics of auditory processing.
