💥DANDRITE GL's Fiona Müllner and Chao Sun receive an ERC Starting Grant 2025💥
With the grant, Fiona will explore how the thalamus shapes and modulates visual signals. Chao aims to uncover how the brain’s cleaning system works, especially during sleep.
Huge congratulations👏

We are happy to announce the recruitment of our new group leader, @fionamuellner.bsky.social. Coming from the Institute of Molecular and Clinical Ophthalmology Basel, Fiona will investigate how neural circuits at the brain’s first central processing stage—the thalamus—shape the way we see.
Welcome!
