      • Overview of the research

        Our goal is to understand the neural basis of flexible decision making. We investigate where and how circuits perform computations involved in decision-making. Our approach is based on connecting properties of neuronal circuit function with behavior in mainly macaque monkeys. We record multi unit activities and analyze the big data to decode decision behavior. We also develop the circuit manipulation techniques with optogenetics or chemogenetics enable us to demonstrate the functions of particular circuits selectively by using virus vectors in behaving macaque monkeys. We utilize a variety of experimental methods to study activity dynamics in circuits and the relationship between circuit dynamics and architecture.
