Funded Activity Summary

This research aims to understand how the mammalian retina achieves its sophisticated sensory processing capabilities, using a collection of cutting-edge techniques. The research will: (1) improve our understanding of the operational principles of the brain; (2) link functional properties of retinal neurons to genetic expressions associated with diseases; and (3) refine bioelectronics that could be translated to clinical applications.
