(Wayman Crow Professor of Physics, Washington University)

I am interested in understanding of realistic models of spiking neurons within a probabilistic description based on population coding; the study of continuous attractors as vehicles for short-term storage of information on analog quantities; investigation of the form and function of nonlinear spatio-temporal interactions on dendritic trees; and simulation of neural behaviors in which expectation- or model-driven top-down information influences input-driven bottom-up processing of external stimuli. I have also been developing and applying advanced methods for classification and function approximation involving artificial neural networks that can learn by example. I am also interested in applying these methods, along with other artificial-intelligence algorithms, to create global statistical models of the properties of complex physical systems, including atomic nuclei and crystalline materials of technological interest.
