Biography

Inbal Israely, is a Assistant Professor in the Department of Pathology and Cell Biology, areas of interest research understanding how activity can lead to specific structural changes which may be important for learning, and how such changes affect connectivity within neural circuits. By combining molecular and genetic tools together with imaging and electrophysiological methodologies, we investigate how information is physically stored in the brain.

Research Intrest

Synaptic plasticity, neuronal structure, dendritic integration, 2-photon imaging, glutamate uncaging, autism, neurodevelopmental disorders
