Research project investigating the role of somatostatin-expressing neurons in learning and neural circuit plasticity, funded by NINDS.

### Description

The project focuses on the role of somatostatin-expressing interneurons in learning and circuit plasticity. The research involves in vivo imaging, cell-type analysis, and neuromodulator activity testing. The project aims to understand how neuromodulators like norepinephrine and serotonin regulate SST activity during learning.
