Han Lab

Postdoc positions are available. Strong background in electrophysiology is preferred. Please send your CV, and research interests to Prof. Han directly.

We invent and apply a variety of genetic, molecular, pharmacological, optical, and electrical tools to correct neural circuits that go awry within the brain. Using these novel neurotechnologies being developed in the lab (i.e.  optogenetics) and classical ones (i.e. deep brain stimulation (DBS)), we modulate the function of neural circuits to establish causal links between neural dynamics and behavioral phenomena (e.g., movement, attention, memory, and decision making). One of our current interests is the investigation of how neural synchrony arises within and across brain regions, and how synchronous activity contributes to normal cognition and pathology.
