Overview

Peyman Golshani is affiliated with the University of California, Los Angeles in the United States. Their research focuses broadly on neuroscience, with a strong emphasis on cognitive neuroscience and cellular and molecular neuroscience. They also engage in biophysics, molecular biology, and electrical and electronic engineering within their scientific investigations.

The main topics underpinning Golshani's work include neural dynamics and brain function, neuroscience and neuropharmacology research, memory and neural mechanisms, advanced fluorescence microscopy techniques, photoreceptor and optogenetics research, advanced memory and neural computing, and neuroscience and neural engineering.

Golshani has contributed to multiple publication venues, notable among them are bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), Neuron, Nature Communications, and eLife. This diverse range of publication platforms reflects a multidisciplinary approach across preprints, peer-reviewed journals, and open research repositories.

Among recent publications attributed to their research efforts are:

  • Identification of neural oscillations and epileptiform changes in human brain organoids, 2021, Nature Neuroscience
  • Breakdown of spatial coding and interneuron synchronization in epileptic mice, 2020, Nature Neuroscience
  • Differential Emergence and Stability of Sensory and Temporal Representations in Context-Specific Hippocampal Sequences, 2020, Neuron
  • Connectivity characterization of the mouse basolateral amygdalar complex, 2021, Nature Communications
  • Miniscope-LFOV: A large-field-of-view, single-cell-resolution, miniature microscope for wired and wire-free imaging of neural dynamics in freely behaving animals, 2023, Science Advances

Collaborations are an essential part of Golshani's academic work, frequently partnering with several researchers. Prominent coauthors include Daniel Aharoni, Karen Safaryan, Jiannis Taxidis, Duy Tran, and Michael Einstein.

Golshani has received recognition in the form of repeated membership in the American Society for Clinical Investigation, spanning a continuous range of years from 1982 through 2021.
