Daniel Aharoni's work focuses on bridging the gap between specialized tool design and the intricacies of modern neuroscience. By applying design methodologies from engineering and physics, my lab develops specialized neuroscience research devices with an emphasis on i) neural recording techniques for freely behaving animals and ii) open-source dissemination of new technology.
