Current Projects:
Currently, I am investigating neurons of the mammalian auditory brainstem. I use electrophysiology, genetics, and imaging techniques to determine the origin of inputs to medial olivocochlear (MOC) neurons, which provide inhibition to a number of brain areas, particularly outer hair cells (involved in cochlear amplification).
Research Interests:
Single cell electrophysiology, neuronal spiking properties, auditory brainstem circuitry
