Prof Kenneth Harris
University College London
Project summary
Professor Harris's research focuses on the mechanisms by which populations of cells in the brain form information-processing assemblies. In conjunction with Professor Carandini, Professor Harris will employ his award to understand how the brain integrates multiple signals, applying a computational approach to model neuronal signal interactions in the cortex.
