Mathew Diamond

Professor Diamond collaborates with CIBF investigators in the Neural Circuits and Brain Systems research themes, developing new techniques for decoding the correlation between neuronal population activity and behaviour, during demanding cognitive tasks, and using electrophysiological recordings to predict decisions.

Mathew is in the Cognitive Neuroscience Sector of the International School for Advanced Studies in Trieste, Italy.

Viktor Jirsa

Professor Jirsa contributes primarily to CIBF’s Models and Neurotechnology theme, particularly using nonlinear dynamic system theory and computation towards the goal of building large-scale brain networks capable of biological function.

Viktor is Co-Director of the Institute de Neurosciences des Systèmes, and Director of Research CNRS, both at Aix-Marseille University, France.

G. Allan Johnson

Professor Johnson contributes to research across CIBF’s Cells and Synapses and Neural Circuits research themes, particularly in the development of novel techniques for amalgamating and analysing data from different types of brain scans over multiple scales, as well as platforms for data sharing within CIBF and with external organizations.

Allan is the Charles E. Putman University Professor of Radiology at Duke University, North Carolina.

David Leopold

Dr Leopold collaborates with researchers in the Neural Circuit and Brain Systems research themes, particularly in experiments that combine electrophysiological recordings, pharmacological manipulations and imaging.

David is a Senior Scientist at the National Institute of Mental Health, and Director of the NIH Neurophysiology Imaging Facility in Bethesda, Maryland.

Troy Margrie

Professor Margrie contributes to CIBF’s Cells and Synapses research theme, with the aim of determining how synaptic potentials, oscillatory rhythms and plasticity within cellular circuits contribute to the representation and processing of information in attention, prediction, and decision-making.

Troy is based in the Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology at University College London.

Partha Mitra

Professor Mitra collaborates in the development of neuroinformatic tools for collating, analysing and modelling the network of connections in rodent and primate brains. He also develops algorithms for statistical analysis of large volumes of neurobiological data.

He is the Crick-Clay Professor of Neuroscience at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York.

Tony Movshon

Professor Movshon collaborates with CIBF investigators working in the Neural Circuit research theme, investigating visual discrimination and attention.

Tony is known for his work tackling complex questions at the interface of perception, cognition and behaviour.

He is the Director of the Center for Neural Science at New York University, New York.

Keiji Tanaka

Dr Tanaka contributes to the design of research projects in CIBF’s Neural Circuits and Brain Systems research themes, particularly integration of non-human primate behaviour with human neuroimaging data.

Keiji is internationally recognised for highly innovative research on visual cognition.

He is Deputy Director of the RIKEN Brain Sciences Institute, Wako, Japan.

Jonathan Victor

Professor Victor collaborates with CIBF investigators on the development of novel stimulus methods and computational techniques for the analysis of neural dynamics and stimulus-response relationships in attention, prediction, and decision-making.

Jonathan also collaborates on the mathematical modelling of the activity of large populations of neurons in real time.

He is the Fred Plum Professor of Neurology at the Weill Cornell Medical College, New York City.

International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility
