Welle, Cristin – Associate Professor

 Key areas of focus: neuromodulation, cortical plasticity, motor control

Dr. Welle’s BIOElectrics Lab investigates how neurological medical devices interact with the nervous system. We dissect circuit-level structural and functional implications of neuromodulatory and brain-computer-interface devices using optogenetics, chronic electrophysiology and longitudinal in-vivo imaging in animal models. Our goal is to understand the dynamic interactions between devices and neural circuits during motor skill learning in the context of translational neurotechnology.
