About Department of Neurophysiology

Background, academic mission, and departmental profile

The Department of Neurophysiology was established in 1975 by Dr. T. Desiraju, who spearheaded research on several fields such as regulation of neurotransmitter release, self-stimulation of brain areas and its effect on behavior and brain plasticity. It was his vision that was instrumental in initiating “Project consciousness” which raised and attempted to answer questions in the then nascent field of human consciousness, attention and neural mechanisms underlying these phenomena.
