Biography

Physiologist - Keita Tamura (田村 啓太) received his PhD in 2014 from The University of Tokyo, Japan, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne – EPFL, Switzerland. In 2022, he joined PDN as an Assistant Professor to study neuronal circuits for cognition and memory by opto-physiological approaches in animal models. 

Research

How can we recognise the rules governing the world and apply them to achieve our behavioural goal? We are aiming to understand such complex cognitive functions a the level of simple neuronal circuits by conitnuing efforts to develop the most sophisticated technologies.
