Roman Pool PhD

Roman Rossi Pool has worked on several electrophysiology projects in primates. His main research topics include the transformation of sensory responses into perceptual responses; decoding during decision-making and working memory of the activity of individual neurons; population dynamics and population coding in perceptual tasks; coupling of cortical areas through synchrony in local field potential oscillations; hierarchy in processing, through cortical areas; and modeling of biologically plausible networks during cognitively demanding tasks, among others. In addition, since joining UNAM, he has actively participated in the teaching and coordination of different graduate and undergraduate courses. He is currently directing undergraduate, master's, and doctoral theses where students use experiments, data science, and modeling to make sense of brain computations. His work group has received and is open to students who wish to perform their social service, professional internships, or simply have an approach to cutting-edge research in cognitive and computational neuroscience.
