Neurosciences Theory Center Faculty

How do our mental lives and behavior arise from neural computation?

Faculty in the Neurosciences Theory Center at the Wu Tsai Neurosciences Institute hail from backgrounds in computer science, statistics, psychology, and applied physics, but all share an interest in advancing our theoretical understanding of the mind and brain through computational analysis.
