Dr. Timothy Horiuchi In Dr. Horiuchi's lab, robots rule the roost. Dr. Horiuchi and his students use hardware models of neural systems to explore the details of how such systems should work. By building robots based on the echolocation systems of bats, they explore how the theories generated by biologists work when applied to real sensorimotor tasks, providing valuable feedback and insight for future research.

Dr. Cynthia Moss Dr. Moss and her students study how bats use a myriad of chirps, pips, and squeaks to navigate and communicate. Research is performed with a variety of techniques including acoustical, neurophysiological, and psychophysical approaches. All projects share a common focus on the role of the bat's auditory system in natural behaviors. This allows the work to speak to brain-behavior relationships in general.
