Biography |
I, graduated from National Taiwan University, was trained in transgenic mice technology. Since my academic pursuit is to disclose the function of neuronal circuitry, electrophysiology became apparently indispensable to my study. I am currently interested in the role of ASIC1a in fear memory. With my expertise in mouse genetics and the cutting-edge electrophysiology techniques, I wish to unravel how ASIC1a affects the gating of inhibitory circuitry, especially in the amygdala. |
