معرفی
Dieter Jaeger is a Professor in the Department of Biology at Emory University, leading the Jaeger Lab at the Rollins Research Center. His research focuses on computational and experimental neurophysiology to study motor control and neural networks in the basal ganglia, cerebellum, and motor thalamus. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of Michigan (1990).
Research Interests: Combining neurophysiology with computer simulations to investigate neural networks involved in motor tasks and Parkinson’s disease. Key areas include cerebellar nuclei dynamics, thalamocortical signaling, and optogenetic manipulation of brain activity.
Publications Highlight: Recent work (2023–2025) explores cortical voltage imaging, astrocyte complexity, and neurovascular coupling, advancing understanding of neural circuit dysfunction in disease.
