- Hosted by Edward Perez-Reyes, PhD, David Klorig, PhD, is a Instructor in the Neurobiology and Anatomy Department at Wake Forest. Dr. Klorig’s research focuses on normal and pathological rhythms of the brain, including normal sleep rhythms involved in long-term memory storage and pathological rhythms involved in seizure. He uses state-of-the-art techniques to identify and understand the organizing principles of the brain using an iterative process of technical development, experimentation, and computational modelling. His findings also form the basis of an NIH-funded collaborative effort to improve treatment strategies for epilepsy using active optogenetic probing to evaluate and optimize novel gene therapies.
