John W. Moore Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience; Neural Networks We study a simple form of associative learning - classical eyeblink conditioning in rabbits - using a variety of approaches: behavioral, computational, and neurophysiological. Recent work has focused on neuronal activity of the cerebellum during complex training procedures.   For additional information, please visit the following webpages: Laboratory & Current Research.
