Brain Dynamics & Control

Engineering
neuroscience.

We are the Brain Dynamics and Control Research Group at Washington University in St. Louis. We build models of brain networks, from theory and data, and use dynamical systems, optimization and control theory to understand how those networks work, how they fail, and how they can be controlled.

Research

Our work spans theory to experiments to the clinic, in close collaboration with basic and clinical neuroscientists.
