Theodore G. Weyand, Ph.D. Visuomotor integration Associate Professor, Department of Cell Biology and Anatomy, LSU Health Sciences Center Dr. Weyand's primary research interest is in vision and visuomotor integration, how visual inputs become motor outputs.
Several projects are currently active.
This project involves recording the activity of single neurons from mobile arrays of microelectrodes in trained rhesus monkeys. The goal of this project is to understand the 3-dimensional computational architecture of the basal ganglia. Corticostriatal and corticotectal neurons in area 6 of the cat during fixation and eye movements. Activity of neurons in area 6 of the cat during fixation and eye movements.
