Mission

The Neurotechnology Laboratory’s mission is to ensure that students and postdocs within the Caltech Neuroscience community have access to the best instrumentation for their research, with particular focus is on optics (microscopy), electrophysiology, and quantification of animal behavior. Within these broad areas, we can assist with selecting commercially available equipment, help decide what parts of a setup to build in-house, collaboratively design and build custom equipment, and help with integrating multiple pieces of equipment together.

Personnel

The Lab is led by Daniel Wagenaar, a neuroscientist with experience in imaging, electrophysiology, and optical, mechanical, and software engineering.

The Lab is located in room B103 in the Chen Neuroscience Research Building. Dr. Wagenaar can be reached by phone at 626 395-8567, or by email. I look forward to working with you!

History and funding

The Neurotechnology Laboratory was founded upon an initiative by Markus Meister with support from David Anderson, Michael Dickinson, and others at Caltech. The Lab is funded by the Beckman Institute, the Division of Biology and Biological Engineering, the Office of the Provost, and by contributions from users. Thank you!
