Dr. Gregory Handy

The Handy lab focuses on developing new mathematical techniques to be used with state-of-the-art experimental protocols in order to advance understanding of biological systems, while advancing the field of applied mathematics. Specifically, the researchers plan on exploring the ability of interneuron subpopulations (e.g., PV, SOM, VIP) and glial cells (e.g., astrocytes) to modulate the dynamics of cortical networks in different physiological contexts.
