Discover PIs of the Month
-
Prof. Julie Semmelhack
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
Leveraging zebrafish’s unique transparent larval stage, Prof. Semmelhack utilises imaging and optogenetic techniques to understand how neuron activity reflects visual stimulus and how subsequent motor commands are issued.
-
Prof. Cora Sau Wan Lai
The University of Hong Kong
Taking both a top-down approach with learning behavior and a bottom-up approach from neural circuits, Prof. Lai’s lab explores how information is processed, stored and used to adjust behavior. The insight into neural plasticity and emotional learning can further therapeutic interventions for various psychiatric disorders.
