Careers after BRI2022.12.01Hiroki KitauraWhen I first joined BRI as a graduate student, I was doing research on functional brain imaging and electrophysiology under the mentorship of Dr Katsuei Shibuki in Dept of Neurophysiology. My doctoral thesis was electrophysiological analysis of the plasticity on neural networks in the rat cerebral cortex using the patch clamp technique. I then advanced my research to study the reorganization of the active dependent brain functional map in mouse somatosensory cortex in vivo. After my PhD, I engaged in functional brain imaging using MRI in mice supervised by Dr Hironaka Igarashi (Center for Integrated Human Brain Science) and later joined Dept of Pathology (Dr Akiyoshi Kakita's lab) to work on imaging analysis of epileptogenicity using surgical samples.
