Tk Kozai Email & Phone Number | Our lab employs a highly transdisciplinary approach to understand interactions at micro-scale neural interfaces and to develop next-generation Neural Technologies that attenuate or reverse negative tissue interactions. Specifically, we focus on elucidating biological structures and biochemical pathways that control physiological function following brain injury and neurological diseases, as well as bidirectional communication between the nervous system and neural interface technology. We then apply these newly discovered constraints and possibilities into designing novel technologies. In order to elucidate real-time long-term cellular and molecular tissue interactions to chronically implanted medical devices, we employ in vivo functional electrophysiology, two-photon microscopy, electrochemistry, and electrical and optical stimulation techniques. In addition, we leverage principles in molecular and cellular neurobiology, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, computer science, physics, biochemistry, material science, optics, and biomaterials. The availability of new optical methods to image brain function and new genetically engineered mice and rat models present a leading-edge opportunity to understand normal and pathological brain function in new ways with exquisite dynamic details. These technologies allow us to advance our understanding of the brain and brain interfaces, as well as create new avenues for diagnosis and treatment of brain pathologies. Specialties: In Vivo Multiphoton Imaging, Functionally evoked in vivo electrophysiology, Neural Prosthetic Device Development, Chronic Neural Recording Electrode Design and Evaluation, Biological Device Interfaces, Neurotechnology, Device Design, Carbon Fiber Electrodes , Flexible Electrodes, Electrochemistry
