Both computational & experimental results in single neurons & small networks demonstrate that similar network function can result from quite disparate sets of neuronal & network paramaters. We show that neurons with many different kinds of ion channels can smoothly move through different mechanisms in generating their activity patterns, thus extending their dynamic range.

Immune cells and their derived molecules have major impact on brain function. Our results demonstrate that meningeal space, surrounding the brain, is the site where CNS-associated immune activity takes place. Meningeal lymphatics, overall, may serve as a novel therapeutic target for neurological disorders.

Did you ever wonder where the concrete in a sidewalk, the asphalt in a highway, the brick in a building, or the glass in a window come from? All are derivatives of rocks and sediments, processed in ways that allow the cities of modern society to exist. But use of these materials comes at a cost to the environment, and supplies of some are not sustainable.

Connectome-based predictive modeling is powerful approach to model individual differences in phenotypes using fMRI data. One limitation of this approach is that models are complex, making it challenging to target these models with interventions. Here, I will discuss our recent work in creating these models and developing potential approaches to target them.
