Synthetic Neurobiology Home

We develop and apply scalable, ground truth-oriented technologies to analyze, repair, and simulate the brain at a mechanistic level. Through creative, systematic, and collaborative work, we invent and discover, and help people grow as thinkers and leaders.

What we work on

We invent technologies for imaging, and controlling, the structure and dynamics of the brain. We apply these tools, often in interdisciplinary collaborations, towards the understanding, repairing, and simulating of brain computations. Our scientific goals include creating biologically accurate computer simulations of entire brains, and solving brain aging.
