RESEARCH ACTIVITIES

1. Optical neuroimaging (investigation of brain cell activity using fluorescent microscopy).
2. Cellular and network electrophysiology (patch-clamp recordings, registration of multisite field potentials in slices and cellular cultures).
3. Investigation of mechanisms of synaptic and extra-synaptic signal transmission in the brain. Synaptic plasticity.
4. Role of cellular mechanisms in cognitive functions: learning, memory, emotions, etc.
5. Modeling information processing functions in neuron-glial brain circuits (spiking patterns, associative memory, information encoding and decoding).
6. The development of neuromimetic information processing systems (neuroanimats).
