NeuroPlant Team

NeuroPlant engages researchers from three Stanford schools (Medicine; Engineering; Humanities and Sciences) and the Carnegie Institution for Science and affiliates of both the Stanford Neuroscience and ChEM-H Institutes. Our interdisciplinary research team features experts in neurophysiology, molecular biophysics, plant genomics, theoretical neuroscience, and medicinal chemistry.
