معرفی
Bradley Winters, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor of Anatomy and Neurobiology at Northeast Ohio Medical University (NEOMED), affiliated with the College of Medicine. His research focuses on understanding the neural mechanisms underlying sound localization, particularly how synaptic plasticity and neuronal dendrite morphology contribute to auditory processing. He employs electrophysiological techniques, microscopy, and molecular biology methods such as two-photon calcium imaging and in situ hybridization.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Neuroscience, Washington State University, 2012
- B.S. in Biology, Colorado Mesa University, 2008
Research Interests: Dr. Winters investigates how sound localization circuits in the auditory system compute spatial information from basic acoustic cues. His work addresses synaptic plasticity in binaural neurons, developmental influences on neural circuits, and the role of dendritic ion channels in signal integration. He studies both mice and Mongolian gerbils to explore tonotopic organization and neural projections in the lateral and medial superior olive regions.
Teaching: He instructs Medical Neuroscience for medical and graduate students and Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology for graduate students.
Labs & Positions: His laboratory at NEOMED utilizes advanced techniques to study auditory processing. He currently lists postdoctoral researcher and graduate student positions available through the NEOMED career portal.
