Research summary

Norbert Hájos studies the microscopic wiring of the brain, focusing on how different types of neurons—especially inhibitory GABAergic cells and their subtypes like parvalbumin, chandelier, and Martinotti cells—are organized and connected within brain regions such as the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus. The work examines how these neural circuits support functions like fear, anxiety, decision making, and memory-related brain rhythms. Techniques include mapping neuron types, recording their electrical activity, and studying how connections change with experience.
