Project summary
Isaac started his research group in the Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology at UCL in 2013. He is interested in understanding the neural basis of behaviour and his research combines two-photon functional imaging of neural activity with manipulation through optogenetic techniques. In addition, quantitative behavioural assays in larval zebrafish are used to investigate the structure and function of complete sensorimotor circuits.
