Auditory Neurophysiology and Modeling Lab – Michael Heinz
The Heinz lab uses a cross-species approach to understand and quantify relations between the physiological and perceptual effects of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL).
Neuroengineering and Neurotechnology
Integral to advancing biomedical research, such as multielectrode stimulation and recording, development of cellular and brain wide imaging and stimulation technologies, and diagnosing and treating pathologies such as addiction, Alzheimer’s, or hearing loss.

Central Auditory Processing Lab – Ed Bartlett
The Bartlett lab is interested in how hearing circuits function in normal and pathological conditions (aging, noise, blast). We are interested in the representation of sound at various levels from the whole brain to cellular and subcellular changes to discover mechanisms determining functional changes.
In addition, we develop protocols to identify diagnostic biomarkers and classifiers of underlying pathologies.
NanoNeurotechnology Lab – Krishna Jayant
The NanoNeurotechnology Lab’s research is focused on a) inventing paradigm-shifting electrical and optical neurotechnologies that can map circuit dynamics in awake, behaving mice with unparalleled precision and b) unraveling the circuit mechanisms and features that underlie energy-efficient sensorimotor computations.
The CogNeuro Lab – Anne Sereno
The CogNeuro Lab engages in various research projects centered around understanding the neural mechanisms of sensorimotor and cognitive processes to help in the differential diagnosis, tracking, and evaluation of intervention of various diseases.
Primary research approaches
- Neurophysiology
- Computer Modeling
- Behavior and Instrumentation
The Dadarlat Lab – Maria Dadarlat
The Dadarlat Lab studies hierarchical cortical processing of visual and proprioceptive information in the healthy nervous system and develops strategies for sensory restoration following disease and injury.
The Neuroprostheses Research Lab – Kevin Otto
The Neuroprostheses Research Lab (NPR Lab) is centered on basic and applied research utilizing neural engineering approaches to treat neurological disorders. The lab is designed to:
- Develop and test neural interfaces to help those afflicted with injury and disease.
- Provide a training ground for the next generation of Scientists.
