| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research area, we focused on mesoscopic neurocircuitry (meso-circuitry), which consists of relatively small number of neurons, and promoted collaborative work of researchers who possess innovative technologies in different research fields including molecular genetics, optical physiology and computation. We held many conferences, workshop and schools, including nine group meetings and two international symposiums, and engaged in PR activities and public education. Much progress has been achieved concerning the structure and operating principle of meso-circuitry, with 32 collaborative publications and over 70 ongoing collaborations.
