BiographyOverview of interestsDr. Maler’s group conducts basic neuroscience research in two areas using a weekly electric fish model system: experimental and computational analyses of feature extraction by low level sensory systems and experimental and computational analyses of the role of active sensing in spatial learning.In all senses (audition, olfaction, somatosensation, vision) low level processing is modulated by higher level brain regions so as to optimally extract ethologically importa...
