Neuroscience and its tools has become very complex. The best way to tackle difficult questions is to collaborate with experts in different techniques and with excellent thinkers that provide new insights. On this page you find short descriptions and links to our collaborators.
Collaborations
Legname Lab (SISSA)
We have a collaboration with our colleagues in the Legname Lab to look at how prion protein deficiency affects behaviour and neuronal properties.
Farrow Lab (NERF, Leuven, Belgium)
We maintain scientific exchanges and collaborations on Peromyscus with my former postdoc lab.
Hoekstra Lab (Harvard, Cambridge, USA)
Both of our labs are fascinated by neuroethology and we collaborate on understanding the genetic and neural circuitry basis of changes in innate behaviours of Peromyscus sister-species.
Lucas Lab & Allen Lab (Manchester University, UK)
Rob and Annette study the visual system, in particular the role of melanopsin. We will obtain Rhabdomys from them and aim to maintain scientific exchanges concerning vision and circadian rhythm. Annette is also Po-Yu's external mentor.
Piasini Lab (SISSA)
We collaborate with Eugenio Piasini's computational neuroscience lab, in particular with Beatriz Pimentel Mizusaki, to analyse our high-dimensional data from combined electrophysiological and behavioural experiments.
We collaborated with these two SISSA labs on Neuropixels data analysis, in particular with their joint postdoc Christophe Michael Jean Schuelke.
Tripodi Lab (MRC, Cambridge, UK)
Marco's lab studies the role of the superior colliculus in head-movements and related behaviours and circuits.
