Esther Krook-Magnuson

Esther Krook-Magnuson is a neuroscientist seeking to improve our understanding of how cells interact within a network, how networks interact with each other, and the physiological roles of neuronal populations. Neuronal networks, diversity, and specificity of function are important to both physiological processes and neurological disorders. The Krook-Magnuson lab utilizes models of temporal lobe epilepsy and essential tremor, and a range of techniques including electrophysiology, optogenetics, imaging, and behavioral experiments to address fundamental questions in the field of neuroscience.
