Master Internship: Outer retinal Information Processing

Groep

Kamermans Groep

Type

Stage

Omschrijving

In this electrophysiological project we will use patch clamp, intracellular electrodes and multielectrode arrays to record responses of retinal neurons and use information theory and linear/non-linear system analysis to determine how and with what efficiency visual information is coded in the outer retina.

Bachelor Internship: Analyzing Zebrafish Retinal Function

Groep

Kamermans Groep

Type

Stage

Omschrijving

For this project the fish are tested in behavioral tasks using optokinetic, startle and optomotor assays. Furthermore, the electrical responses of the eye are evaluated using ERG measurements and the morphology of the retina is studied using morphological techniques.
