GPN Distinquished Lecture Series: Ed Callaway

Visit from Ed Callaway. Professor in the Systems Neurobiology Laboratories at the Salk Institute. Work in Ed's laboratory is aimed at understanding how neural circuits give rise to perception and behavior. Studies focus primarily on the organization and function of neural circuits in the visual cortex. Relating neural circuits to function in the visual system, where correlations between neural activity and perception can be directly tested, provides fundamental insight into the basic mechanisms by which cortical circuits mediate perception. Lecture will be followed by reception for the neuroscience community at BU.
