 , function\, and connectivity of mouse visual cortex. His work has shown th
 at partitioning into multiple areas\, distributed sensory processing\, hier
 archical wiring of bottom-up and top-down pathways\, and modular circuit or
 ganization are conserved architectural features of mammalian cortex. He is 
 a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.</p><p>
