Biography
Since March 1st 2007, Richard Hans Robert Hahnloser is a Full Professor for Systems Neurosciences at the Institute of Neuroinformatics, affiliated with the University and the ETH Zurich.
Research Interest
His research interests are the neural principles underlying vocal learning and imitation in songbirds. Using a combination of experimental and theoretical approaches, he studies the signal processing in auditory and motor cells of the song system, as well as the regularities of their synaptic connections. His work aims at decoding the neural networks of the song system and to understand the structural and functional plasticity of these networks to environmental influences.
