Dr. 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.
Curriculum Vitae
Research
The lab focuses 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.
