Understanding the function and information processing of cortical circuits during behavior. Dr Danai Katsanevaki Postdoctoral Research Fellow Hugh Robson Building George Square EH8 9DX Contact details Email: d.katsanevaki@ed.ac.uk Web: Rochefort Lab Personal Profile Postdoctoral fellow, University of Edinburgh: 2018 - present. PhD in Neuroscience, University of Edinburgh: 2013 - 2018. MSc in Integrative Neuroscience, University of Edinburgh: 2012 - 2013. Research My current work aims at understanding the function and information processing of cortical circuits during behaviour. I have a particular interest in cell-type specific interrogation of these processes in animal models of neurodevelopmental disorders, such as intellectual disability, autism and childhood epilepsy.
