Welcome Ben Suter and the Bilateral Neurocircuitry Lab

DBE

Coordination between hemispheres allows the brain to act as a unified system and be experienced as a single mind. In his Bilateral Neurocircuitry Lab, Ben Suter investigates the underlying mechanisms.

Human medicine, in particular seminal studies with split-brain patients, has revealed the importance of interhemispheric connections in establishing a unified mind. How this union fundamentally comes about is an open question. Suter tackles it by combining various approaches including in vivo microscopy and virtual reality.
