Interests

My research aim is to understand the neural mechanisms of selectively extracting sensory information from a complex environment and the functions for experience-dependent cortical plasticity. In my current postdoctoral project, I study the role of GABAergic interneurons and cortical oscillations in visual perceptual learning.
