Gil Vantomme
Postdoctoral Scholar, Neurology and Neurological Sciences
BioI am a postdoctoral fellow interested in studying synaptic physiology and dysfunctions. My researcher focuses on thalamocortical circuits involving cortical structures relevant for cognition and executive function. Taking advantage of mouse models of autism spectrum disorder and epilepsy, I aim to uncover defects in synaptic function that underlie these disorders.
