About
Prof. Alan Carleton is a faculty member at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva, leading research on sensory perception mechanisms, particularly in olfactory and gustatory systems. His work focuses on how neural networks encode sensory information and relate behavior to neuronal activity, with applications in brain-machine interfaces.
- Research Themes:
- Multi-sensory integration during feeding behavior
- Electrophysiological and 2-photon imaging approaches
- Role of adult neurogenesis in olfactory coding
- Methodologies:
- In vitro and in vivo neural recording
- Lentivirus-mediated gene transfer
- Behavioral paradigms in mice
Recent Research Trends emphasize olfactory coding mechanisms, receptor gene clustering, and metabolic-neural interactions. Collaborative scientific awards and grants are not explicitly mentioned in the provided texts.
Lab Members include postdocs (Bhattacharjee, Juventin, Kouskoff), graduate students (Fodoulian, Moulinier, Mutel, Renfer, Huber), lab technician (Husi), and scientific collaborators.
