| Research Abstract |
I have studied neural circuit mechanisms of the processing of numbers such as the numerosity of sensory stimuli and the planning/execution of sequential actions through computational modeling, and have proposed specific models on the possibility that detailed properties of individual cortical pyramidal neurons, in particular, nonlinear input integration and cooperative plasticity induction on the dendritic branches, as well as short-term synaptic plasticity, significantly contribute to the processing of numbers and the planning/execution of sequential actions.
