Physiology I - Emmy Noether Research Group - Julia Veit
Our group works on the dissection of cortico-cortical circuits and their role in visual coding and perception, as well as on the impact of specific types of interneurons on information coding and cortical dynamics

Research:
The lab focusses on circuits of inter-areal communication in the visual system. We are combining simultaneous multi-area recordings with Neuropixels probes, optogenetics and behaviour to understand how different brain areas coordinate their activity and give rise to perception.
