Research Interest

Research interests My overall research interest is the processing and transformation of information within the nervous system. The long-term ambition being to understand the processes and principles which underlie the distribution and function of signalling systems within the architecture of the cell, and determine its fate. The overarching theme of my research over recent years has been the search for ways to extract pragmatically useful knowledge from the wealth of attainable neuroscience information.
